Testimonials

The Masters in Medical Systems Engineering (MSE) program at the OVGU provided an interdisciplinary and collaborative learning environment made possible by the faculty members representing diverse research areas addressing clinical needs and patient care. Coming from a more rigid undergraduate curriculum in the United States, I appreciated the hands-on and flexible coursework options made available in the MSE program, which allowed me to explore and take ownership of my education experience. For example, the industry internship under the research track option was a great opportunity to dig into a research problem while gaining experience at a leading healthcare company. The MSE program at the OVGU set me up for success in a PhD program in the United States, which later led to a faculty appointment at the PhD-granting institution. I am very pleased and proud to be a part of the OVGU alumni.

After graduating from high school, I was determined to start the bachelor's degree program in medical technology at the OVGU. In the meantime, I quickly realized in addition to all the theory in my studies, practical experience is essential to become a good engineer. At the STIMULATE Institute I worked on various projects in the field of computer and magnetic resonance imaging. This gave me the chance to do research on a Tabletop MR at the master's degree Medical Sysrtems Engineering in cooperation with Dr. Thomas Witzel at the Athinoula A. Martinos Center (Harward Medical School & MIT) in Boston. This significantly improved my expertise. The MSE program in close cooperation with STIMULATE offers many opportunities for theoretical but also practical teaching, especially in the field of imaging techniques.
