Summary
The Master of Science (MSc) in Medical Visualisation & Human Anatomy is offered by The School of Innovation and Technology at The Glasgow School of Art (GSA) in collaboration with the Anatomy Facility (AF), School of Medicine, Dentistry, and Nursing, University of Glasgow (GU).
This programme provides an academic framework for postgraduate students to engage with the application of 3D medical dataset visualisation, computer graphics, serious games and Extended Reality technologies (such as Augmented and Virtual Reality) across a variety of biomedical fields.
The programme also creates a unique opportunity to combine the theoretical and practical aspects of human anatomy education, including cadaveric dissection, with state-of-the-art digital technologies, to foster interactive, immersive and augmented anatomically accurate digital reconstructions of the human body.
Students develop the knowledge and skills necessary to create innovative solutions that foster a greater understanding of "normal" anatomy and regional variations and provide novel approaches to aid multi-disciplinary fields in anatomical knowledge, understanding, training and skills transfer, building upon medical datasets. With the steadily increasing use of multimedia resources, 3D interactive visualisation to support communication, clinical diagnosis and training in a variety of biomedical fields such as dentistry, anatomy, surgery, veterinary sciences and so on, the MSc Medical Visualisation & Human Anatomy places graduates in a leading global competitive position to advance in medical research, academia, and commercial organisations.
The programme attracts graduates in biomedical, dental, medical, surgical, and allied health professional programmes as well as those from other design, life-sciences, computer science, mathematics, physics, computer graphics and visualisation specialties, including employees from commercial organisations involved in designing, developing and marketing healthcare related products and simulations.
