The postgraduate diploma in Clinical Trials has been designed with the objective of educating these professionals in the field of research. For this reason, TECH wants to offer a high academic level training, including the most innovative information on this field. 

Specifically, the program covers the study of preclinical drug research, with content of the essential concepts of clinical trials, a training base without which students would not be able to enter this exciting scientific field. To this end, they establish the categories according to which clinical trials are classified to delve into different types of clinical trials, and post-marketing research of investigational products. 

On the other hand, investigational drug samples are a critical point in the sequence of activities to be performed in the clinical trial. Therefore, to ensure that clinical trials are conducted according to ethical, legal and good clinical practice standards, it is necessary to establish a special sample control system that allows the use of samples according to the contents of the trial protocol.
