This master's degree provides advanced level multidisciplinary oriented training for the academic, professional and research specialisation of graduates interested in the different fields of Pediatric research. It is inter-university between the universities of Cantabria, Granada, Rovira i Virgili, Zaragoza and Santiago de Compostela.
The Master enjoint interuniversity NUTRENVIGEN-G D FACTORS treats of an only official title organised jointly by 4 Universities or “Joint Programme”, of big scientific interest and academician.
The Official Title that proposes is oriented to the scientific and technical training of pertinent students of numerous degrees in the area of the health. The training that offers is multidisciplinary and also is directed to the recycling and update of knowledges of professionals that devote his professional activity or researcher to the attention of the population infanto-juvenile. Therefore, this program concrete in a training advanced that allows an academic specialisation-researcher and/or professional.
The Program, coordinated from the University of Granada, offers a total of 60 credits ECTS in the module of Virtual Teaching, 9 credits ECTS in the Module of Practices and 15 credits ECTS in the Module of Investigation-Work End of Máster (TFM), these two last face-to-face. This Máster has a total of 25 agreements with Centres of Investigation and Hospitals, so much national like international, to realise the practices and the TFM.
The international character of this Máster has propiciado the agreement established with the Early Nutrition Academy (ENA), through the cual, between other activities, all the students of the Máster NUTRENVIGEN-G D Factors are invited to participate in the Postgraduate Courses that annually celebrate in one of the Universities participants in the consortium.

Prácticas curriculares presenciales externas. Permitirán al alumno conocer de primera mano cómo se trabaja en diferentes entornos en los que se utilizan de forma práctica los conocimientos que se imparten en el Máster, dándole la oportunidad de elegir entre diferentes tipos de actividades, según su formación y experiencia.
El programa obliga al alumno a investigar en un tema seleccionado entre las diferentes líneas de investigación que se ofertan, a formular nuevas hipótesis y trabajar intensamente para desarrollar las actividades que se le proponen a lo largo del curso académico de forma continuada. Además, los alumnos deben diseñar un estudio, elaborar protocolos característicos de investigación en embarazadas, lactantes, placenta, niños y adolescentes, conocer, comprender y tener en cuenta las implicaciones éticas, realizar la investigación, hacer los análisis estadísticos, y aprender cómo se publican y diseminan los resultados. Los tutores asignados supervisarán el trabajo del alumno.
All the professors are involved in teaching on a European level, belong to consolidated maximum impact research groups and collaborate with the Universities of the consortium NUTRENVIGEN-G+D Factors in the development of different European projects for over 10 years.
This guarantees the up-to-date training of students and that the relationship between the professors from the different participating universities favours the signing of agreements between different centres of recognised national and international prestige.
