Graduates in Cardiocirculatory and Cardiovascular Perfusion Techniques are qualified to face and manage, independently or in collaboration with other health professionals, clinical situations even in patients in critical conditions, using their knowledge to ensure their survival and stabilizing their vital functions with appropriate technologies (Extracorporeal Circulation, ECMO, VAD, IMPELLA, etc.). They are able to independently perform diagnostic and therapeutic prescriptions, and are required to carry out training, teaching and research activities.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
The course is open to a programmed number of students and therefore access requires a selection exam that takes place in the first half of September. In addition to the curricular courses, students are offered a wide range of monographic courses and seminar activities on topics related to the subjects covered. They are also guaranteed adequate professional laboratory activity and practical internship at the facilities of the University Hospital of Marche under the supervision of professionals dedicated to coordination and tutoring. The Bachelor Degree ends with a final exam, which is qualifying.

STRENGTHS OF THE COURSE
The various courses are organised in modules and consist of lectures and practical activities in the diagnostic room or in the laboratory. The learning results are evaluated with ongoing tests, also with the purpose of self-evaluation for the student, and with a final test, which can be oral or written, necessary for the acquisition of credits.
The acquisition of cognitive skills is achieved through the performance of practical training and the creation of professional laboratories that allow the achievement of training objectives related to the used methods, equipment and procedures, together with the acquisition of behavioural and relational skills necessary in complex work environments. In this regard, the internship experiences are extremely important for the student to gain a gradual assumption of autonomy and responsibility with the supervision of experts, both in a protected situation (laboratories) and in real situations (practical training).
