The postgraduate degree course provides specialised training on the technological aspects of decentralised diagnostics, known as PoCT (Point-of-Care-Testing), which is an innovative model that is becoming increasingly popular in the medical and surgical fields and in community-based contexts.
Students acquire specific training on the latest communication theories, which are essential for interacting with the various professional figures involved in managing PoCT equipment. They also acquire the necessary skills to develop and manage technological innovation projects involving the implementation of decentralised analysis systems.
The postgraduate degree course, also through theoretical-practical traineeship activities, allows students to acquire:
- knowledge of the main analytical technologies used in PoCTs
- knowledge of the role of PoCTs in the landscape of laboratory diagnostics across different contexts, in accordance with the principles of evidence-based medicine.
Career opportunities
The postgraduate degree course provides employment opportunities in both national and international public or private companies operating in the healthcare and health technology sectors.
In the healthcare sector, the rapid spread of innovative, interdisciplinary technologies that require the implementation of advanced quality management systems highlights the importance of acquiring specific expertise in the management of PoCTs, from both a technological-organisational and healthcare communication perspective.
The healthcare sector is expected to see a rising demand for these specialised skills in the coming years.
