Course summary

This programme will provide healthcare professionals with the opportunity to develop their understanding of the field of ICT and its application to improving healthcare.

For example wearable devices and apps that monitor exercise, sleep patterns, etc., are becoming increasingly common. They help people monitor and adjust their lifestyle choices. The data gathered also provides medical professionals with early warnings and often life-saving information. This is just one of many used for digital healthcare technologies in both practise and research.
