Duration: 12 months (19 July 2027 – 16 June 2028)
TOTAL CREDITS: 60 ECTS (1,500 hours)
Mode: Hybrid, digitally supported (Virtual Campus)
In collaboration with: Precision Health Alliance
Chair: International Chair in Precision Medicine and Artificial Intelligence
The Master’s Degree in Precision Lifestyle Medicine and AI Medicine trains the professionals who will lead the transition to personalised, intelligent and accountable medicine. It combines rigorous scientific judgement with an advanced understanding of artificial intelligence, implementation, ethics and human behaviour.
The programme develops the ability to interpret human variation, evaluate emerging evidence, design personalised lifestyle and prevention strategies, and use AI safely and verifiably. It is not about learning to use a chatbot: it is about knowing how to check whether an AI answer is valid, safe and useful for a specific person.
Flexible pathway: besides the full Master’s, each of the two specialty courses (25 ECTS) and each of the 20 two-week short courses can be taken on its own.
| Component | ECTS | Hours |
|---|---|---|
| Precision Lifestyle Medicine Specialty (5 × 2-ECTS + 5 × 3-ECTS courses) | 25 | 625 |
| AI Medicine Specialty (5 × 2-ECTS + 5 × 3-ECTS courses) | 25 | 625 |
| Supervised applied practicum | 5 | 125 |
| Research thesis and presentation | 5 | 125 |
| TOTAL MASTER’S | 60 | 1,500 |
Four teaching terms: T1 (19 Jul – 24 Sep 2027) and T2 (11 Oct – 17 Dec 2027) for Precision Lifestyle Medicine; T3 (17 Jan – 24 Mar 2028) and T4 (10 Apr – 16 Jun 2028) for AI Medicine. Each course lasts two weeks and includes its own assessment; there is no separate final exam period.
