The importance of artificial intelligence (AI) is increasing worldwide. Its potential is also becoming more and more apparent with regard to the challenges in the healthcare sector. It is therefore extremely important to address the lack of digital skills in this area by training qualified healthcare professionals in the field of AI and computer scientists in the field of healthcare. With our new online master’s program, we want to address this issue. Our xAIM online master’s program aims to create an interdisciplinary environment where students are trained to work at the intersection of Data Science, AI and Healthcare. Students will learn the fundamentals of Machine Learning and Data Science so that they can handle and analyse large, heterogeneous and complex datasets representative of the healthcare sector. Concepts from the health sector are taught to further their understanding and to enable them to interpret the data and results. The entire program will put a strong focus on the current state of the art and possible future AI applications in healthcare, as an important goal of the master’s program is to provide practical knowledge and the ability to apply the acquired skills. To complete the curriculum, there will be a strong emphasis on ethical and social implications of AI applications.
