An Ecosystem Approach to Developing and Implementing a Cocreated Bachelor’s Degree in Digital Health and Biomedical Innovation

This paper aims to describe the cocreation and development processes of an educational ecosystem-centered Bachelor's degree in Digital Health and Biomedical Innovation (SauD InoB). This program is shaped by a multidisciplinary, intersectoral, and collaborative framework, involving more than 60 organizations in teaching activities, internship supervision, or hosting, most of which collaborated in needs assessment, curriculum development, and public promotion of the degree. In the context of health care digital transformation, this comprehensive Bachelor's degree will respond to unmet demands of the labor market by training students with technological, research, and management skills, as well as with basic clinical and biomedical concepts. Graduates will become transdisciplinary, creative professionals capable of understanding and integrating different "languages," reasoning, clinical processes, and scenarios.

Abstract

This paper aims to describe the cocreation and development processes of an educational ecosystem-centered Bachelor's degree in Digital Health and Biomedical Innovation (SauD InoB). This program is shaped by a multidisciplinary, intersectoral, and collaborative framework, involving more than 60 organizations in teaching activities, internship supervision, or hosting, most of which collaborated in needs assessment, curriculum development, and public promotion of the degree. In the context of health care digital transformation, this comprehensive Bachelor's degree will respond to unmet demands of the labor market by training students with technological, research, and management skills, as well as with basic clinical and biomedical concepts. Graduates will become transdisciplinary, creative professionals capable of understanding and integrating different "languages," reasoning, clinical processes, and scenarios.
