Medical Visualisation & Human Anatomy MSc

Why this programme

• Learn to combine actual cadaveric dissection with 3D digital reconstruction, interaction and visualisation.
• Undertake cadaveric dissection of key areas of the human body and examine prosections.
• Gain 3D visualisation skills specific to applications in the medical, biomedical, anatomy, or health domains.
• Get access to a wide range of digital interaction technologies including virtual and augmented reality, stereographic 3D and haptic devices and become involved in the design and development of related visualisations and/or applications eg visualising current life science research, creating patient information applications or training applications for medical practitioners, diagnostic and clinical applications, medical visualisation and simulation.
• Each student has a dedicated PC for their studio work due to the studio based teaching approach at The Glasgow School of Art.
• Access is available to the Laboratory of Human Anatomy at The University of Glasgow, one of the largest in Europe.
• Opportunities are avalailable to have your work published in journals, books and conference proceedings / presentations through collaborative research projects.
• Benefit from guest lectures by practitioners, researchers and experts through our excellent industry connections from research and commercial projects.
• Projects are supervised by leading scientists across the College of Medical, Veterinary and Life Sciences.
• This programme and teaching staff are accredited by the Institute of Medical Illustrators .
• The staff in Simulation and Visualisation have expertise in 3D modelling, Human-Computer Interaction, Virtual Reality, Augmented Reality and in the use of games and related technology to support education and learning.
