tasks involving topic updates/updating (and revision)

Something along theses lines might work.

I'm fairly certain the idea is the course *topics*, i.e., those typically found in a syllabus or course guide/outline.

What's in parenthesis was included just for a bit of additional context. The idea appears to be that of periodical, curricular updates/revisions, typical in relation to course/program review in the context of accreditation.

I hope this helps. Cheers from Vietnam :-)

Hi Catherine: When it comes to revisions and update in the context of program review and what students should be able to do upon graduation, examining what are often called "program learning outcomes" (PLOs) is quite common; indeed, these PLOs are usually informed by (course-level) "student learning outcomes," i.e., what students should be able to do to pass a given course in the program. At least this is how I have come to understand and discuss these topics, having worked (as an academic) on "program review" quite a bit over the years.
Note from asker:
Hi Marcelo, This makes sense, except for the fact that , in the context. it is referring to what the graduate will do or be able to do, rather than the faculty or university

subject updating (tasks)

Literally.
So the whole sentence might be something like" The realization of subject/topic updating and clinical research works through the experience gained in the drafting of monographs..."

Lowish confidence level because it is not 100% clear whether "temas" refers to course subjects -although it seems likely- or something else.

the application of subject matter learned in courses/as a result of the student's studies

I think this is what might be meant in this case, rather than "updating".
