DATA3770 Health technology project Course description

The students will carry out an IT project in cooperation with a relevant health care environment, for instance at the Faculty of Health Sciences at OsloMet, individually or in groups of up to five students.

In addition to the projects on offer, students can find their own projects within a relevant company, public organization or nonprofit. In this case, it is the student's responsibility to find a supervisor for the project within the external organization. All student-initiated projects must be approved by the course coordinator before the start of the project.
