The Master's Degree in Management and Digital Transformation in the Health Sector (ManagiDiTH) is designed to prepare professionals to manage the digitalization of health services. Through data science, artificial intelligence and the use of advanced information systems, the aim is to help reorganize healthcare services, innovate clinical processes and help modernize the practice of healthcare professionals.
This master's degree is an international program taught in English, entirely online, with synchronous and asynchronous components, and is coordinated by Iscte, in collaboration with the Laurea University of Applied Sciences (Finland) and the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki (Greece).
Director(s) message
The ongoing digital transformation in the health sector is a phenomenon that creates unique opportunities and challenges. Combining technical and management skills, ManagiDiTH aims to train professionals capable of planning, coordinating and implementing digital solutions that make healthcare services more efficient, inclusive and adapted to current needs.
We have designed a programme that promotes the reconciliation of studies with other professional and personal responsibilities. The distance learning system offers students greater autonomy in time management, without jeopardising the quality of the teaching and learning provided.
The study plan is organised into three semesters (totalling 90 ECTS credits), developing competences in three main components: societal, digital and health. Within the digital component, students choose subjects corresponding to one of the two specialisation branches of the master's degree: data science or interoperability, according to their interest and training profile.
The Master's teaching staff is made up of experts in the fields of health, technology and management, all with experience in distance learning.
The programme is particularly suitable for (current or future) professionals with various academic backgrounds, including healthcare, social care, ICT and organisation management. Applicants must have a university degree and can come from all European Union countries.
We invite all those interested to take part in this journey of innovation and change in the health sector, an enriching experience, both academically and professionally.
