Digital Health Management (DHM)

Digital technologies are fundamentally and rapidly changing the delivery of healthcare. The Digital Health Management course provides an introduction to the field and shows participants ways to navigate the evolving landscape of healthcare technology and digital solutions, including AI applications. Participants will explore the intersection of healthcare, information technology and business management, gain an understanding of the challenges and opportunities, immerse themselves in concrete cases and domains, and learn about relevant management approaches and practices for planning and implementing information systems.

Course participants will acquire knowledge and skills to navigate the digital health landscape, i[.]e. relevant principles, tools and techniques for designing, implementing, monitoring and maintaining sustainable digital applications.

This part-time and flexible study programme caters to the needs of working professionals. More than 75% of all learning takes place at a distance, giving students the opportunity to learn and progress at their own pace. All courses adopt a blended learning approach, offering the advantages of both self-directed and face-to-face phases.

The course starts with a distance based preparation phase and is followed from an on-campus phase and the final exam. The Post-campus phase is finished with the handing of the final Assignment.
