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.

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.

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.
