Profil

The Human Enhancement and Ethics program provides interdisciplinary competence for supporting the development of safe, effective, and accepted technological solutions to enhance human capabilities. Graduates are expected to be able to view concrete practical tasks holistically and solve them at the "human-machine" interface (or boundary) using scientific and technological methods as HEN-Engineers.

The focus is thus on understanding the fundamental technological competencies and ensuring interdisciplinary skills in biology, medicine, and ethics to address practical issues related to new life, production, and healthcare aids. This covers the entire process from the initial idea to understanding and preparing the specific application (in the real-world context), extending to modeling, and up to full implementation.
The primary goal is to train HEN-Generalists who think holistically, and who are primarily capable of supporting and managing technical product developments, but also implementing simple HEN solutions within a small team and integrating them into work and/or life environments.
