Medical Engineering - Branches of Study: Medical Image and Data Processing / Health & Medical Data Analytics and Entrepreneurship

About

Medical technology is one of the main focuses at Friedrich-Alexander-UniversitÃ¤t Erlangen-NÃ¼rnberg (FAU). Over 150 university institutes and laboratories are actively participating in this sector. Many research units at FAU, especially at the Faculties of Engineering, Science, Medicine, and Economics deal with research questions about healthcare engineering, such as medical imaging and image processing (CT, PET, SPECT, US, OCT), molecular and translational medicine, computational medicine, medical and biological computer sciences, medical physics engineering, medical biotechnologies and biomaterials, medical process, and health management. The Master's degree "Medical Engineering - Branch of Study: Medical Image and Data Processing" is a technical and research-driven programme with a specialised focus on computer science for medical needs. It teaches systematic and instrumental methods to students and imparts professional and methodological skills. The interdisciplinary study content leads to a high qualification in the career field of medical image and data processing. Methods for software systems in medical engineering are acquired, ranging from algorithms for image improvement, image reconstruction, and image registration to computer-aided diagnostic support and hospital information systems. Thus, very advanced computer science skills (algorithms, programming in Java, C/C++, Matlab, Python, working with Linux operating system), profound knowledge in electrical engineering, and a strong theoretical background inÂ mathematics are required.

Requirements

Entry Requirements
