ABSTRACT
Objective:
To analyze the current situation of the specialty setting and training program of Intelligent Medical Engineering (IME) in China.Methods:
The information about the schools' name, year of opening, enrollment plan, training objective and curriculum was obtained by the website investigation and was statistically analyzed by Excel.Results:
(1)A total of 48 universities set an IME major from 2018 to 2021, mainly in developed areas. The number of talent training was nearly 2 400 per year. (2)The information of colleges which established IME was acquired from 47 universities. Among them, 59% (13/22) of the comprehensive universities set the IME major in medical-related colleges. (3)The information concerning professional training objectives was collected from 40 universities and they highlighted the capabilities of big data intelligent processing and software research and development, and 12 of them also required students to master the capability of hardware research and development. (4)Computer science and technology, preclinical medicine, clinical medicine and biomedical engineering were the main disciplines of IME. The professional core curriculum mainly included computer language and artificial intelligence (AI) related courses.Conclusion:
IME education has sprung up rapidly with the development of AI technology in medical and health field. However, the cultivation of IME professionals is still at exploratory stage. It is recommended that the national related departments should publish some relevant guidelines on the training orientation of IME.
