What you can expect

  • Basics of medicine
  • Medical technology and medical informatics
  • Organization and structure of the healthcare system

Digitalization has arrived in the healthcare system and is changing the technology of diagnosis, treatment and communication. At the same time, the digitalization and personalization of medicine as well as growing patient empowerment pose major challenges for the healthcare system.

Data, information and new technologies, which are already available today in a variety of ways, are the linchpin. In some areas there are already practical solutions - the development horizon for most applications extends far into the future.

What our students say

Portrait_Zitat

 

Study health and medical technologies

"I studied Health and Medical Technologies because the course reflects my interests and combines knowledge from computer science, engineering, business administration and medicine. You learn a lot of interesting things that also give you direction as to what you want to do after graduation. You learn and work very closely with the real world during your studies. All of this made it easier for me to start my career."
