Bachelor of Science [B.S] [Medical Technology] From University of Duisburg-Essen

Due to the close cooperation between the engineering sciences and the medical faculty, the students of the bachelor's degree at the Essen Clinic experience a "real" basic medical training in the introductory subject areas, such as anatomy, medical terminology, physiology, biochemistry, etc., which make up around a third of all basic courses in the degree program. This direct insight into the medical teaching, research and, if necessary, work culture offers students a great opportunity to find their way around the medically shaped territories of medical technology in order to be able to actively shape them in the context of a future work environment. 

In the bachelor's degree in medical technology, taking into account the changes and requirements of the professional world, students acquire knowledge, skills, and methods that enable them to work scientifically, critically classify scientific findings, and act responsibly. In particular, the course imparts knowledge and skills that serve to provide an overview of scientific methods in the highly interdisciplinary field of medical technology and to apply them to the analysis and solution of demanding problems. In addition to the typical engineering problems, this also includes the mechanisms and interactions at the numerous interfaces between technical systems and organic/biological structures.
