If you are one of those who think that sport is more than exercise and that behind every great performance there is a deep medical knowledge, then keep reading because this interests you.

Look, the Professional Master in Sports Medicine is not just another degree to hang on the wall. It's not one of those programs you do to say "I got it," while still not knowing how to apply what you learn. No. This master's degree is the key for you to become the reference that athletes need. And I'm not just talking about professional athletes (that too), but anyone looking to improve their quality of life through sport.

If you are already in the field of medicine, physiotherapy, or you move in the world of sports science, this master is the piece you are missing to stand out and, why not, earn more. Because let's be clear: when you know what others don't, your value goes up. And when your value goes up, so does your bank account.

What will you find in this master's program?

First things first. You are not here to learn theory and be left half way through, like those courses that just tell you the basics. This master's degree is designed for you to understand the human body as a precision machine. But not just in an academic sense; here you will learn to detect, prevent and treat injuries, as well as maximize the physical performance of athletes with the most advanced techniques.

Why choose this program and not another?

Good question. You go into the master's program and come out with a holistic view of sports medicine. We're not just talking about you learning how to treat a muscle tear or tendonitis. No. Here they teach you how to directly influence physical performance, how to prevent injuries at the root and how to help athletes recover faster, better and safer.

Contents that make a difference

The syllabus is designed to help you understand sport from a medical point of view and how to apply this knowledge in real situations. And, mind you, we talk about everything: from recreational sport to high performance.

I will tell you some of the topics you will cover during the master's degree:

Sport physiology: You will learn how the body works during exercise, how it responds and adapts, so that you know how to intervene at the right time.

Sport injuries: Not only how to treat them, but how to prevent them and avoid relapses. You will know the best treatments, from rest to surgery, when necessary.

Nutrition and supplementation: Because, without proper nutrition, performance plummets. Knowing what an athlete should consume, when and how, is a key part of medical work in sport.

Sports rehabilitation: Injuries are not the end of the road. With this master's degree, you will learn the most advanced techniques for rehabilitation, helping athletes return to their best level.

Sports psychology: The mind plays a fundamental role in physical performance. You will learn how to work the psychological aspect hand in hand with the physical, because an athlete must not only be in shape, he or she must also be mentally prepared.

Biomechanics: Understanding body movement is key to optimizing performance and avoiding injuries. You will learn the latest techniques in sports biomechanics analysis.

And not only that.

This master's degree has internships in professional environments. Because one thing is theory, and quite another is to face the day to day of a medical center specializing in sport, where the pressure is real and the results can not wait.

For whom is this master

I do not want you to sign up if you do not have it clear. This master's degree is for you if:

• You are a physician or physical therapist and want to specialize in the sports field.
• You work in the sports world and are looking to expand your knowledge in athlete care.
• You are in sports science and want to take it a step further, learning what you need to advise at the medical level.

If you don't fit into any of these categories, don't worry. This master's degree is also open to those who simply want to learn more about how the human body can perform at its best and how to care for those who push it to its limits.

What will you get when you finish?

You finish the master's degree and get a title that's not just a pretty piece of paper to show off on LinkedIn. You will have acquired knowledge that positions you above many professionals in the industry. In addition, you'll have a network of contacts and practical experience that will give you access to jobs in sports clubs, gyms, specialized medical centers, and you could even open your own practice.

And best of all: you'll be among the few who really know how to help athletes perform at their best, preventing truncated injuries from taking them out of the game.
