The core subject of this Postgraduate Program (MSc) is the study, research, and provision of advanced training to healthcare professionals specializing in Obstetrics and Gynecology, specifically in the field of Fetal and Maternal Medicine. The program’s philosophy is to equip postgraduate students with contemporary knowledge, methods, and principles that enable lifelong learning. Furthermore, it aims to cultivate the critical and creative skills necessary for a socially and ethically responsible professional practice.

The aim of this Postgraduate Program (MSc) is to provide high-level scientific, theoretical, and practical knowledge in the field of Maternal-Fetal Medicine. Maternal-Fetal Medicine is an evolving scientific field of medical science focused on identifying predisposing factors, symptoms, and complications of pathological conditions during pregnancy. It also encompasses the prevention and management of issues that could affect the health of both the fetus and the mother. Please note that the completion of the proposed postgraduate program does not equate to obtaining the subspecialty title in Maternal-Fetal Medicine.

The learning outcomes and qualifications of those who successfully completed the Program include the acquisition of up-to-date knowledge, methods, and principles that will enable them to engage in lifelong learning, as well as the development of critical and creative skills required for socially and ethically responsible professional practice.
The structure, content, and organization of the courses and teaching methods are geared toward deepening knowledge and linking research with teaching. Specifically, upon completion of their graduate studies, students will be able to:

• Process data and draw reliable conclusions. Acquire the knowledge and skills necessary for a successful career in the private, public, and academic sectors.
• Understand statistical studies.
• Define basic statistical concepts such as variables, statistical risk, and errors.
• To construct valid questionnaires and draw sound scientific conclusions.
• To process data and draw reliable conclusions.

In addition to basic scientific knowledge, graduate students acquire the ability to:

1) apply knowledge in practice, 2) search for, analyze, and synthesize data and information using appropriate technology, work independently or in a team and/or interdisciplinary setting, 4) adapt to new situations and make decisions, 5) generate new ideas and scientific knowledge, 6) demonstrate responsibility, 7) develop critical thinking skills, and 8) promote free, productive, and inductive thinking. 9) conduct research and produce academic work with the ability to analyze, synthesize, and interpret information.

Graduate studies aim to advance knowledge, develop research and the arts, and meet the country’s educational, research, social, cultural, and developmental needs, to train high-level scientists capable of contributing to theoretical and applied areas of specific disciplines, specific thematic areas, or subfields of the academic subjects covered in the first cycle of studies in the Departments, as well as to the production and dissemination of knowledge, know-how, methodologies, tools, and research results within the scientific field in which each Department operates.
