“MBT” refers to a town created with high added value based on medical universities’ and doctors’ medical knowledge and wisdom as “medicine-based engineering (MBE)”.
The students will be involved in all tangible, intangible, and operational aspects of MBT development, actively collaborate with each specialist, and learn about social backgrounds and related technologies in medicine and healthcare through fieldwork representing the real world, with the goal to become active in the front lines, regardless of the country. They will also deepen their understanding of the goals of MBT while recognizing the depth and expanse of medicine/science that forms the basis of each research area.
