Introduction to the Program
A highly qualified Hybrid Master's Degree that will allow you to acquire the most advanced knowledge in its theoretical part and put it to the test in the field, in its practical part”
In recent years, and thanks to new care and better nutrition, the life expectancy of pets has increased considerably. As a result, as pets age, they face a wide range of pathologies that affect their health and quality of life. For this reason, the veterinary sector is constantly innovating, searching for more complete diagnostic methods. Based on this need, radiology has become a valuable tool that is gaining more and more advocates in animal medicine. Research in this educational field has led to the emergence of new strategies to identify cardiorespiratory and gastrointestinal problems or the appearance of tumors.
In this context, TECH has designed a study modality that covers the theoretical and practical dimensions of Veterinary Radiology in Small Animals. Through an up-to-date Hybrid Master's Degree, the student will be able to delve into new discoveries related to radiodiagnosis and the most innovative protection measures against ionizing radiation. In the first phase, the contents will be taught 100% online, on a learning platform with high interactive features and multimedia resources of great teaching value.
Through part of the pathway, the program strives to develop new skills in the student for the handling of complex tools and techniques. This will take place through a 3-week intensive classroom practice at a prestigious veterinary clinic. The institutions chosen by TECH for this training are leaders in the field of veterinary radiology. In this way, the student will be accompanied during the educational process by the most distinguished experts in a demanding educational field and will acquire holistic knowledge about the day-to-day work in this type of facilities, the most frequent pathologies to be detected and the most effective methods for their identification.
