Health Sciences

The healthcare sector faces major challenges: staffing shortages, rising costs, an aging population, and climate impact. Do you want to help shape the future of healthcare and public health? In this master’s, you will tackle complex healthcare issues. You learn how to apply policy, management, and technology to create accessible, affordable, and sustainable healthcare. Think of e-health, data-driven innovation, and involving citizens in their own health and in healthcare policy-making. You will deal with questions like: how do we keep healthcare affordable? How can we focus on prevention and use technology to influence people’s attitudes and behavior? Can data be used to predict healthcare needs and guide policy? And what is needed to make healthcare more sustainable? This master’s is open to students from diverse backgrounds — from health and technology to organisation and design. After graduation, you can pursue a career in hospitals, home care, government, insurance, or consultancy.
