1
00:00:04.360 --> 00:00:10.640
Our MSc program, Diagnostics Data and Digital Health
is one of the first of its kind to be offered across the UK.

2
00:00:10.720 --> 00:00:14.680
Warwick is renowned for being
strong in multidisciplinary activity

3
00:00:14.680 --> 00:00:18.040
being offered across departments
within the Science Faculty and Medicine.

4
00:00:18.040 --> 00:00:20.400
It will allow students to have access

5
00:00:20.400 --> 00:00:26.280
to fundamentals in diagnostics, data and digital health,
as well as providing state of the art information

6
00:00:26.280 --> 00:00:30.120
and knowledge on techniques and devices in those fields.

7
00:00:30.200 --> 00:00:35.120
It's a really fantastic opportunity
to study fundamentals in science and engineering

8
00:00:35.120 --> 00:00:41.200
that are relevant to all kinds of areas
and to look at the applications of them in a very current setting

9
00:00:41.200 --> 00:00:44.440
where there's often a lot of urgent patient challenges to be met

10
00:00:44.440 --> 00:00:47.440
in a hard pressed or resource limited health care setting.

11
00:00:47.680 --> 00:00:53.360
It’s fair to say that across all the programs at Warwick,
we try to enbuild research within our taught programmes.

12
00:00:53.360 --> 00:00:56.800
Research is important so that students know what the state of the art is

13
00:00:56.800 --> 00:01:01.320
and how that might even be extended
within the work that they perform whilst they're here.

14
00:01:01.400 --> 00:01:04.080
We encourage the students to go beyond

15
00:01:04.080 --> 00:01:09.320
what we happen to be specialists in,
in their coursework assignments because we give them the skills

16
00:01:09.320 --> 00:01:13.760
to be able to work with research literature,
to find things out for themselves,

17
00:01:13.760 --> 00:01:16.680
and that's what makes their coursework assignment unique.

18
00:01:16.680 --> 00:01:22.320
We're offering a mixture of hands on taught
material offered in a variety of formats.

19
00:01:22.320 --> 00:01:27.320
So there'll be blended learning, there'll be
face-to-face teaching and online activities as well.

20
00:01:27.320 --> 00:01:31.480
So there'll always be practical work
associated with the studies that the students undertake.

21
00:01:31.560 --> 00:01:35.520
If you have a particularly niche area
that you need to focus on, I have found

22
00:01:35.520 --> 00:01:39.640
that there have been academics
who can help aid my understanding and improve my work.

23
00:01:39.720 --> 00:01:43.120
Graduates should be able to find employment
across a host of different areas,

24
00:01:43.200 --> 00:01:47.880
in particular in terms of diagnostics, pharmaceutical industries,
clinical trial units

25
00:01:47.960 --> 00:01:51.760
within the health service itself, in terms of
the wealth of data that currently exists.

26
00:01:52.120 --> 00:01:55.560
We have students
who are going on into active research in these areas

27
00:01:55.560 --> 00:01:59.640
through the university sector, including at Warwick,
but also beyond and overseas.

28
00:01:59.640 --> 00:02:04.440
We have students who are going into work
with health care providers like the NHS

29
00:02:04.440 --> 00:02:08.920
because there's a direct route
that they can do that through beyond graduating from this course.

30
00:02:09.000 --> 00:02:12.040
There is a recognised need, nationally and internationally

31
00:02:12.040 --> 00:02:15.320
for people with those skills to support industry in the future.
