Program description
MedTec School
This course, held in English, is offered by Humanitas University in agreement with POLITECNICO of Milan. It is characterized by the integration between a degree in Medicine and Biomedical Engineering.
This new professional figure will be able to fully understand and consciously manage the advanced technologies that characterize the medical profession and to apply an increasingly personalized medicine using systems of high technological complexity for the treatment, clinical evaluation of patients and diagnosis.
Students will also be able to optimize therapeutic results with particular attention to the potential of data analysiscs and machine learning techniques, as well as the use of new materials and advanced therapeutic devices such as surgical robots, endoprostheses, biostamps and 3D prints.
Graduates will be able to find employment not only in the sectors of the medical profession and research, but also in the industrial sectors that operate in the design of biomedical devices and technologies or in the pharmaceutical sector.
The admission test usually takes place in March/April. It consists of a multiple-choice test in English, lasting 100 minutes.

Degree
The Course provides:
-
A higher level of in-depth study of the basic subjects that are already part of the training of the physician (chemistry, physics, statistics, computer science), typical of the preparation of a biomedical engineer.
-
A greater attention to the acquisition of the necessary skills to deal with issues related to precision medicine and regenerative medicine.
-
The integration of pre-clinical and clinical preparation with related teachings (such as mathematical analysis, computer science, electrical engineering, mechanics, etc..) useful to build a solid basic engineering training giving future graduates of the course skills that make them able to address complex issues in the field of applications of technology and information analysis to medicine.
-
The inclusion in the educational path of methodologies and technologies typical of biomedical engineering in order to facilitate a cross-fertilisation between medical training and basic engineering training.
-
An innovative approach to doctor-patient interaction that allows to make the most of the potential offered by technologies and intelligent systems for the optimization of machine-patient interaction and for the customization of therapies and continuity of care.
