Do you enjoy science and engineering and would you like to apply it in medical applications? Be one of the first students for this new and unique English-taught bachelor’s program, where you learn to develop methods that trigger the body to repair or renew itself. With a bachelor’s degree in Regenerative Medicine and Technology you gain all the multidisciplinary knowledge and skills needed to design and market innovative solutions in healthcare.
The rapidly growing field of regenerative medicine is an upcoming field where science and technology meet to design and develop new medical therapies based on regeneration. It can help treat damaged tissue or attempt to heal certain chronic diseases and not merely treat its symptoms.
With a combination of science, engineering, and medicine you can for example study how tissues and materials interact and how this can enhance the regeneration process.
Regenerative Medicine and Technology The exciting and multidisciplinary field of regenerative medicine You learn to design and develop medical therapies, products and devices for research and clinical use in regenerative medicine. The fields of science (biology, chemistry, data science), engineering (mathematics, physics, materials), medicine (physiology, anatomy) and entrepreneurship are well represented in the curriculum.
Strong cooperation with MUMC+ Regenerative Medicine and Technology is remarkable for its close collaboration with the Maastricht University Medical Centre and professionals from the industry. You work on real-world problems brought to you by clinicians and/or the industry. In addition to courses and research projects, you receive training in laboratory skills aligned with the content of your courses and work on a set of academic and professional competencies which prepare you for your future career.
A better and more sustainable tomorrow You design methods that allow the body to repair itself by conducting research and applying state-of-the-art technologies. For many patients this offers an excellent alternative to organ and tissue transplants and sometimes also life-long medication. Help eradicate some of the common chronic diseases like diabetes, arthritis and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) as well as various cardiovascular conditions. This not only contributes to a better life quality for patients but in the long run also helps keep the health costs down.
Building bridges You build bridges between science, technology, healthcare and health. Moreover, you develop yourself as a professional and learn how to speak the different languages of various experts and how to market your regeneration-based solutions.
The Faculty of Health, Medicine and Life Sciences started on 1 January 2007. The faculty was the result of a merger between the Faculty of Health Sciences and the Faculty of Medicine.
The Faculty of Medicine was the first faculty to be established at Maastricht University. The University was officially established on the 9th of January 1976, although the first medical students began their studies in September 1974. The Faculty of Medicine was the second in the world that applied the Problem-Based Learning method. The other faculties of Maastricht University , i.e. Arts and Culture, Economics and Business Administration, General Sciences, Health Sciences, Law, and Psychology adopted educational systems and research organisations akin to that of the Faculty of Medicine.
The Faculty developed into a community with a staff of around 1200 (academics, administrative and support staff), and approximately 1950 medical students. Since 1992 staff and students are based at the complex of buildings of the Faculty of Health, Medicine and Life Sciences, Faculty of Psychology, and the University Hospital (Academisch Ziekenhuis Maastricht) which opened in 1991.
The Faculty of Health Sciences offered a broad range of disciplines that made the faculty unique, not only in the Netherlands but also in Europe. The format allowed students to integrate their discipline and research work into all areas related to society, sickness and health. By way of research and specific (undergraduate and postgraduate) education, the Faculty of Health Sciences contributed to the quality improvement in healthcare.
At the moment the Faculty of Health, Medicine and Life Sciences has some 2,500 students enrolled in its broad spectrum of educational programmes leading to a Bachelor's and/or Master's degree. Health Sciences examines the relationship between health, lifestyle, disease prevention, care and cure. The Health Sciences curriculum covers the entire field of health sciences: biological, behavioural and social health sciences. Three questions take centre stage throughout the course:
1) What is health? 2) Which factors influence health? 3) How can we influence these factors?
To ensure a good quality of health care not only doctors are needed, but nurses and paramedics are also important, too. But also the expertise of other professionals is essential: the health scientists.
