Get an exhaustive and rigorous update on all the novelties of Telemedicine through this very complete Hybrid Master's Degree"

In a very short time, Telemedicine has become an indispensable health branch. Therefore, every day, science and technology support its progress with new technological resources. As a result, specific mobile applications have emerged for the diagnosis and monitoring of dermatological lesions, indicative of skin cancer. 

At the same time, monitoring patches have been developed to remotely check the clinical variables of patients with chronic heart disease. Telesurgery has also experienced a considerable boost in recent times due to the involvement of more efficient connectivity resources that make it possible for a surgeon, thousands of kilometers away, to operate on patients with robotic tools.

Contradictorily, not all specialists are up to date with these advances and very few are able to apply their advantages in their daily professional practice. In this context, TECH is committed to this Hybrid Master's Degree in Telemedicine, with a pioneering methodological design of its kind. The degree, divided into two parts, devotes the first part to theoretical and 100% online learning of modern concepts related to this branch of healthcare. Therefore, over the course of 1,800 educational hours, the doctor will have total availability of the contents from any device connected to the Internet. At the same time, methods of great didactic value, such as Relearning, will help to make the process of assimilating knowledge faster and more flexible.

Then, in the second half of the program, TECH has planned an intensive 3-week stay in a medical facility of international prestige. In this practical environment, the professional will learn first-hand the latest working dynamics in Telemedicine. In addition, they will have the opportunity to discuss therapeutic options and the management of new technologies with leading experts in the field. At the end of this phase, the graduate will be ready to apply these new skills with excellence and even undertake personal eHealth projects.

Study, over the course of 1,800 hours, the most innovative concepts in the current practice of Telemedicine"

This Hybrid Master's Degree in Telemedicine contains the most complete and up-to-date scientific program on the market. The most important features include:

• Development of more than 100 clinical cases presented by Telemedicine professionals
• The graphic, schematic, and practical contents with which they are created, provide scientific and practical information on the disciplines that are essential for professional practice
• Comprehensive systematized action plans for the main pathologies
• Presentation of practical workshops on procedures diagnosis, and treatment techniques
• An algorithm-based interactive learning system for decision making in the clinical situations presented throughout the course
• Practical clinical guides on approaching different pathologies
• All of this will be complemented by theoretical lessons, questions to the expert, debate forums on controversial topics, and individual reflection assignments
• Content that is accessible from any fixed or portable device with an Internet connection
• Furthermore, you will be able to carry out a clinical internship in one of the best hospital centers

Completing the 3 weeks of clinical practice of this Hybrid Master's Degree means that you will be ready to face the most diverse challenges of your professional practice"

In this proposed Master's Degree, of a professionalizing nature and blended learning modality, the program is aimed at updating Telemedicine professionals who require a high level of qualification. The contents are based on the latest scientific evidence, and oriented in a didactic way to integrate theoretical knowledge into practice, and the theoretical-practical elements will facilitate the updating of knowledge and allow decision making in patient management.

Thanks to the multimedia content, developed with the latest educational technology, Medicine professionals will benefit from contextual learning, i.e., a simulated environment that will provide immersive learning programmed to train in real situations. This program is designed around Problem-Based Learning, whereby the physician must try to solve the different professional practice situations that arise during the course. For this purpose, the students will be assisted by an innovative interactive video system created by renowned and experienced experts.

The two stages of this degree will provide you with an excellent mastery of the theoretical and practical skills necessary for the practice of Telesurgery"
