Medizintechnik
Description
The M.Sc. Medizintechnik expands and deepens knowledge and skills in engineering sciences and human medicine. It is supported by the Department of Electrical Engineering and Information Technology of the TU Darmstadt in cooperation with the Department of Medicine of the Goethe University Frankfurt. 80% of the course content is offered by the TU Darmstadt (e.g. engineering sciences, computer science, social sciences and humanities). 20% of the course content is offered by the Goethe University Frankfurt (human medicine).
The students' involvement in current research reinforces the high level of application relevance. The following thematic focuses are available for selection:
Medical Imaging and Image Processing (BB); Radiation Physics and Technology in Medicine (ST); Digital Dentistry and Surgical Robotics and Navigation (DC); Actuators, Sensors and Neurostimulation (ASN).
The degree “Master of Science” is equivalent to the academic degree “Diplom-Ingenieur”.
The programme offers the greatest possible freedom of choice for students, a broad subject/technical range through teaching imports from, among others, the fields of economics, social and human sciences, material sciences, mechanical engineering and computer science at the TU Darmstadt, and a practical range in medicine. In the research-oriented Master's programme, the knowledge already acquired in the Bachelor's programme is further deepened.
