The COVID-19 pandemic revealed the urgency for well-trained professionals in vaccinol-ogy. With the purpose of building capacity in the field, the Catholic University of Portugalcreated the Masters in Immunology and Vaccinology. Here, I describe this innovativeprogram and compare it to the current Vaccinology programs worldwide to reveal itsuniqueness, and how it will contribute to reduce the burden of disease, improve diseaseprevention and promote healthier lives globally.
