International
Europe in the lecture theatre
International networks, exchanges and European projects: How the Health Sciences Department at Salzburg University of Applied Sciences teaches and conducts research across borders.
In this chapter
Health education without borders
The academisation of the healthcare professions 20 years ago also boosted the internationalisation of the healthcare sector. This has led to the creation of international networks, exchanges and projects that broaden our horizons beyond our own profession and our own healthcare system. After all, what we teach and learn must stand up to international comparison.
Europe as a hub for innovation in healthcare
Healthcare systems across Europe face similar challenges: demographic change, a shortage of skilled staff, digitalisation and the question of how new technologies can be put into practice more quickly. Solutions to these challenges are increasingly being developed outside individual institutions or countries. What is needed are networks in which universities, research organisations, industry and healthcare organisations share knowledge and jointly develop new solutions.
