Programa de Tecnología en Neurofisiología Clínica, Título de Asociado

The Clinical Neurophysiology Technology Program at Mayo Clinic offers the best accredited neurodiagnostic and polysomnographic technologist training in the area. You will learn about the function and disorders of the nervous system and the principles and practical applications of neurodiagnostic and polysomnographic testing.

Neurodiagnostic technologists perform many tests that diagnose problems with the brain and nervous system and sleep disorders. They use state-of-the-art digital equipment to record electrical patterns throughout the brain and nervous system, which results in invaluable data that the doctor needs to diagnose and treat the patient. The data gathered from these tests can help diagnose conditions like epilepsy, seizure disorders, strokes, degenerative brain disease, among others.

Program highlights include:

One of the only programs to train in five modalities, including EEG, nerve conduction studies (NCS), sleep studies (PSG), evoked potentials, and autonomic testing

Training at one of the best health care facilities in the world

Small-class sizes, where your instructors know you by name

A curriculum that includes a mixture of classroom learning that includes hands-on practise sessions, and plenty of clinical experience working with real patients

100% job placement

Our training is focused on developing Mayo Clinic's future workforce — meaning that after graduation if students are the right candidates and positions are available, many of our graduates go on to work at Mayo Clinic directly out of training. However, you can be confident you will be fully prepared for your first day on the job, wherever that may be.

Mayo Clinic College of Medicine and Science is transforming health care for both patients and society through excellence in education, discovery, innovation, teamwork, and leadership.

The college's mission is to educate and inspire a diverse workforce of health care providers, physicians, and scientists through excellence in medical education, research, and clinical care; Alleviate human suffering by providing compassionate and culturally sensitive care; Enhance the biomedical sciences through discovery and innovation, and advance the national health care system through population science and leadership.

Since Mayo Clinic was established more than 150 years ago, our goal has been to provide outstanding care to our patients and offer superior educational programs that ensure the success of the next generation of medical, scientific, and allied health professionals.

In fact, even our name — Mayo Clinic — comes from this idea. From the beginning, Dr. William Worrall Mayo and his sons, Dr. William J. Mayo and Dr. Charles H. Mayo invited physicians and students to visit Rochester, Minnesota, and learn about their innovative medical and surgical practice. Visitors coming to observe referred to attending the "Mayos' clinic."

At the same time, the Mayo brothers and their colleagues were distinguished scholars who traveled the world to learn from others and bring back the latest medical developments to incorporate into their own practice. As the Mayo Clinic integrated medical practice grew, education's importance continued to be a central focus.
