Why choose Health and Welfare Technology?
Welfare and technology have never received so much attention from citizens and policy-makers. At 海角社区, you can study for an MSc in Engineering in Health and Welfare Technology, combining knowledge of human anatomy, physiology and biomechanics with knowledge of technology, IT and mechanics.
For example, you can design robots that support rehabilitation, or work with artificial intelligence for diagnostic imaging. You specialise in either RoboMedic or Health IT.
Health and Welfare Technology is for you if you鈥�
- want to develop technologies and intelligent systems that can improve quality of life
- want to specialise in RoboMedic or Health IT
- want to work at the intersection of citizens, healthcare professionals and technological solutions
What will you learn?
During the programme, you learn how to develop technological solutions in areas such as robotics, sensor technology, GPS, information and communication technology, and medical image processing.
RoboMedic focuses on physical interaction between humans and technology in health-related contexts. The courses in this profile bring together sensors, motors, mechanics and embedded software with physiology and human interaction.
With the Health IT profile, you gain insight into the digitally connected healthcare system. You gain experience of how information technology is designed, implemented and integrated in both citizen-facing and clinical contexts.
Teaching format
The Master’s programme takes two years and builds on a Bachelor of Engineering or bachelor’s degree, for example in Health and Welfare Technology. On the Master’s programme, you can specialise in RoboMedic or Health IT.
You become part of a study-based and collaborative learning environment, working in project groups. Project briefs usually come from companies or researchers. In the third semester, you have the opportunity to study abroad at a foreign university.
