The training courses of the T4H Doctorate are aimed at developing the knowledge, skills and competences required in the research sector and in highly interdisciplinary professional fields, which integrate typical aspects of medical and engineering sciences. In particular, the doctor, the biologist and the biotechnologist are led to autonomously develop new protocols or new experimental methodologies by integrating traditionally high-tech engineering solutions; the engineer is in turn driven to acquire greater knowledge of clinical trials in order to enrich his own design ability - understanding the problems relating to the specific application area - and developing new technological and methodological solutions.
According to the US Bureau of Labor (https://www.bls.gov/ooh/fastest-growing.htm), among the emerging jobs with the highest employment growth are several those focused on health and well-being, testifying to the new opportunities that will be offered to T4H PhDs.
The opportunities for specialists with technical skills in the medical-health field are continually growing, given the increase in awareness aimed at protecting personal health and the environment.
In the area where the T4H Doctorate is based, there are, in particular, various healthcare and industrial entities with specific interests in digital innovation applied to the field of health and well-being, which have shown interest in high-profile professional figures with interdisciplinary skills and strong address the management of international relations in the field of research.
