Digital Health Management (M. Sc.)

Where can I find employment later on?

Potential employers are all institutions that have a place in the digital health sector, i.e. healthcare providers (including hospitals), health insurers, pharmaceutical and medical technology companies, companies in the hardware and software industry, associations, chambers, universities and health policy. Not least to be mentioned are start-ups, which have a high share in the current dynamics in the health sector.

Concrete places of employment are, for example:

• Medical technology companies
• Pharmaceutical companies
• Software companies (app developers)
• Statutory health insurance companies and private health insurers
• Hospitals, outpatient health care facilities and nursing homes
• Public/governmental institutions (authorities, associations)

The future prospects are excellent. The digitisation of the German healthcare system is at the top of the agenda. Without this development, the German healthcare system will achieve neither the quality nor the efficiency goals. Since the development “actually” only began in 2016, there is still a long way to go, which our graduates can and should help shape in a wide variety of places. A look at job portals shows the growing demand in this segment, especially since such an interdisciplinary education is not reflected in the classic degree programmes. Our students report that they are already involved in practice as working students and experience an uninterrupted transition into professional life.
