The veterinarian's role as part of a multidisciplinary team to develop new treatments applicable to humans and animals is fundamental and has taken on special relevance in recent years. Thanks to the development of clinical trials, it is now possible to have increasingly safe, effective and specialized medication for each pathology. This way, an experimental evaluation is carried out on the target species or a particular category, in order to guarantee its safety once it becomes available on the market. 

The importance of developing this practice in an appropriate environment and with conditions that guarantee compliance with animal welfare regulations, as well as on the basis of current legislation, relies on veterinary professional's involvement. For this reason, TECH has developed a complete program with which students will be able, to get up to date on the latest developments in this field, in just 12 months. 

It is a program designed by experts in the field with years of experience in research project management. Thanks to their participation, it has been possible to create a new and thorough syllabus with which specialists will be able to update their knowledge in: epidemiology applied to Veterinary Clinical Trials and its approach, the design and methodology of the processes in laboratories and farms, and the current regulations. 

Students will have 1,500 hours of the best theoretical, practical and additional content, the latter presented in different formats: detailed videos, research articles, complementary reading material and much more! Everything you need to delve in a personalized way in the different sections of the program, which will be available 100% online. You will be able to improve your veterinary skills through an academic experience adapted to your needs and those of today's industry.
