Master’s Degree in Technological Innovation in Health (MTiH)
- Course duration: Two years
- Language of instruction: English
- Course locations: Sorbonne University (Paris, France), Europe
Programme Overview
Created by a consortium of five universities, MTiH takes a transdisciplinary approach to biomedical engineering. Working in teams, students learn to combine different technologies to solve real-life health challenges. Their “active learning” and practical work are carried out in two universities. Thanks to a collaborative, market-oriented approach, they will gain problem-solving skills, empowering them to develop innovative healthcare solutions.
Five partner-universities:
- Sorbonne University (France),
- Grenoble Alps University (France),
- Polytechnic University of Madrid (Spain),
- University of Barcelona (Spain),
- University of Lisbon (Portugal).
Programme Outline
MTiH is a two-year master’s degree (120 ECTS):
-
Year 1= M1
-
Year 2= M2
The programme is built on a learning‐by‐doing curriculum. It promotes creativity, innovation and design thinking among students who will:
- take courses and receive mentoring at a home university,
- visit a partner university for further studies,
- participate in non-academic activities,
- complete a five-month internship in a company or a research laboratory.
