While the Digital Health programme kicked off with theory-heavy IT fundamentals, it quickly transitioned into engaging projects and a rewarding programming course that allowed us to apply theoretical concepts through hands-on projects. Guest lectures from digital health experts added another layer – real-world insights into the exciting career paths that lie ahead.

First Year Student, Digital Health
Despite a knee injury hindering my option to continue with a medical career, my passion for healthcare led me to the Digital Health programme at IMU. The programme exceeded expectations, equipping me with practical skills and the opportunity to network with experts at events like Digital Health Week. This experience solidified my desire for a career in digital health services.

One aspect of the Digital Health course I value highly is the opportunity for early exposure to industry professionals. For instance, my class had the privilege of having speakers from the National Institutes of Health Malaysia share their knowledge and experiences. These lectures provided valuable insights into the potential opportunities that await us upon completing the Digital Health programme. The exposure to industry professionals in the early stages has been invaluable in helping us better understand the practical applications of Digital Health. We have gained a deeper appreciation for the scope of the field and the potential impact it can have on the healthcare industry.
