Welcome to the School of Life and Health Sciences!
The 4th Industrial revolution is here and impacts to a great degree the Life and Health Sciences. Technological and scientific developments have opened new directions for biomedical professions. Currently, global expenditure on health exceeds $8.3 trillion or 10% of the global GDP with more than $2.4 trillion dedicated to biomedical research. There is no better time to select a profession in this area.
