About the Program

The Master's program in Biomedical Information Technology focuses on how modern information technology methods and systems can be used for maintaining or restoring health and providing support in everyday life. This includes medical issues as well as assistance systems and sports and fitness applications. The program deals with questions such as how wearables can be implemented and medically utilized, how robotics can be used in operating rooms or assistance systems, how diseases can be detected early or even predicted using big data, and how artificial intelligence can support doctors in their daily work. The study is interdisciplinary, application-oriented, and project-based. It includes both compulsory and elective modules in the first three semesters, two project works, and a master's thesis in the fourth semester. The compulsory modules cover mathematical-system theoretical foundations, measurement technology, signal and image processing, and artificial intelligence, always with a close connection to concrete applications with medical background. In the elective modules, students can specialize in specific topics or areas such as machine learning methods, robotics, human-machine interface, or rehabilitation technology.
