Clinical Technology (BSc)

The Dutch-language degree programme in Clinical Technology is a multidisciplinary programme at the interface between medicine and technology. Medical and technical subjects are intertwined in most courses. The programme’s teaching methods include lectures, guided study groups, clinical skills training and projects. The second year contains an introductory clinical internship.

Clinical Technicians create and apply new solutions for technical-medical problems in direct patient care by devising new, better and safe diagnostics and therapeutic procedures. As a member of a multidisciplinary team, you can play a pivotal role in targeted, patient-specific treatment. You will be qualified to independently perform medical procedures.

The programme is a collaboration between Leiden University (LUMC), Delft University of Technology (TU Delft) and Erasmus University Rotterdam (Erasmus MC). Classes take place in Delft and in both hospitals, so you can profit from the available expertise. The curriculum teaches the same skills and knowledge as the Clinical Technology programme in Twente.
