A postgraduate program in digital medicine was developed as part of an EU project. This is intended as further training for graduates of medicine or other medical training programs and will deal with the most important applications of digital data processing, artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, robotics and the Internet of Things in the healthcare sector. The ULG aims to improve higher education for healthcare professionals in digital skills and deepen understanding of the design, use and development of digital technologies.
Digital health applications have significant growth potential and are one of the areas with the strongest societal demand for digital professionals. The postgraduate program presented is intended to help close this gap as part of an international course.
Students have the opportunity to choose between 2 specializations with different focuses:
- Data Expert in Health
- Technologies for Digital Health
Modules leading to a "Master of Science (CE)" degree
Modules leading to the qualification of "academic expert in digital medicine"
