This course is aimed at engineering and product design graduates who want to contribute to improving the lifestyle of many people needing community care. The course will specialise in the development of products including remote diagnostics, assisted living/communication devices, intelligent clothing and technological innovations linked to housing design. It will also cover further emerging areas linked to the design and development of new and existing products focusing on communication for assisted living.
Features to be included: remote diagnostic of the physical parameters of an individual through, for example, intelligent clothing using bio-feedback; remote communication with individuals and the more challenging area of remote communication between the individual and their house or living space. This could include verbal or other communication to control ambient conditions, ordering of goods and services, the control of individual appliances and contact with the emergency services.
Our Intelligent Health Technology MSc degree is one of the new courses offered in association with the Health Design & Technology Institute (HDTI) at Coventry University.
Graduates will be equipped with the necessary skills to secure an exciting career in intelligent product design, with an emphasis on the development of products underpinned by healthcare technology.
