Content

In this block you will become acquainted with the theme Healthcare and Technology, also known as eHealth. You will learn broadly what forms of care and technology there are and what their significance can be for citizens, professionals and organizations. Groups of MiZ students work closely together on an eHealth project throughout the entire period. In addition to lectures by teachers from MBRT and MiZ, there is also a lecture tour with high-profile guest lectures every week on topics related to the steps of the CeHRes Roadmap. The lecture tour is provided by various lecturers from the HG, but also from the field of care and welfare about matters related to eHealth. The lecture tour is set up together with a teacher from the Medical imaging and radiotherapy techniques course, MBRT. You also follow the lectures together with students from the MBRT, who also work on this subject within their study programme.
