Objectives
Over the last ten years, information and communication technologies (ICT) have been widely applied to the health sector, accelerating the digitalization, standardization, and intelligence of health services. Digital Health refers to the application of ICT in support of health and health-related fields and includes public health data, electronic medical records, telemedicine, mobile health applications, personalized medicine, home automation and more.
The Digital Health Master program invites students to discover the realm of digital health, from biology to medicine, to better understand data related to health, and to master advanced digital technology in this emerging sector. The program’s objective is to train engineers and project leaders specialized in digital health, such as in health application/web development, health data management, biological and medical data analysis and beyond.
Our Digital Health Master program is built on project-based learning, active teaching methods and learning-by-doing. All along the 2 years, the students will benefit from the active learning approach of the programme: field trips, site visits & study tours, group projects supervised by professionals from the industry, practicals in Innovation learning centers, flipped classrooms & serious games.
With our hands-on approach and piecemeal training options, students gain real world experience and the power to decide how to build their own expertise.
Semester-long team projects are an integral part of the curriculum. One day a week is dedicated to group projects in collaboration with a professional expert, partner company, or research institute and supervised by a professor.
Students spend 40% of the program immersed in real professional experience: lectures given by professionals from the sector, site visits, and 2 compulsory internship periods are included in the programme. These internships, carried out either in France or abroad, in a company or a laboratory, expose students to the reality of working in the field and on research and prepare them for entry into the global workforce.
Careers
The Digital Health program teaches students the skills necessary to manage data in healthcare, master digital analytics in biology and health, develop and evaluate medical software and applications, and manage projects in the health sector.
These skills can be applied to a career in a variety of roles in the health and well-being sector: health data engineer, bio-statistician, engineer in health applications development, and digital health project manager.

What our students say
“I have been studying at HEI for 3 years now, and I was tempted by the presentation we saw in third year on Smart Cities.
This domain demands knowledge and usage of: building skills, design and also new technology.
There is also a dimension linked to environmental and sustainable development and as a future engineer, these are two vital areas.
I would like to work abroad, in a building company that creates new infrastructures that are connected and sustainable e.g. schools or hospitals.
Our lessons are interesting and the teachers really know what they are talking about, due to their high level of training, enthusiasm and knowledge.”
