Master in Health Technology Management

The Health Technology Management Master's programme at Aalen University trains graduates for research- and development-related roles at the intersection of health sciences and management. The curriculum combines medical, scientific, technical, and economic content, preparing students for leadership roles in health economics and business management. Students complete projects and case studies throughout the programme and write a Master's thesis. The programme runs over three semesters. The first semester, held in Aalen from October to February, covers research methods and statistics, project and process management, general management, risk management, health technologies and innovation management, and medical data fusion and artificial intelligence. The second semester, also in Aalen from February to July, addresses regulatory affairs and ethics, leadership, and four elective modules. The third semester is the six-month Master's thesis, which students may complete at a location agreed with their supervisor. The first two semesters are taught entirely in English. Aalen University is located in a smaller city with comparatively low living costs, and graduates from Germany may extend their visa to begin working in the country. The programme is based at Aalen University in Aalen, Germany.
