You will learn how to assess industrial Augmented Reality threats, their potential impact on the facilities and employees, and how to mitigate these threats. The course will also provide opportunities to apply new knowledge in use-cases of industrial relevance.

Den här kursen ger dig som arbetar inom medicinteknik de nödvändiga kunskaperna för att utveckla och hantera säkra och hållbara digitala system inom vården. Kursen ger dig kunskap om hur digitala system och vårdstöd ska utformas för att säkerställa att säkerhetskrav för patient och sjukhuspersonal uppfylls. Du lär dig att analysera och sammanställa risker och fördelar med olika typer av medicintekniska system samt värdera teknik utifrån hållbar vård och digitalisering. Medicinteknisk utrustning omgärdas av en speciell lagstiftning för att säkerställa hög patient- och användarsäkerhet. Dagens medicintekniska produkter är också ofta kopplade till sjukhusens datorjournalsystem, något som gör att de sammantagna systemen i många fall blir svåra att överblicka och kontrollera. För företag och ingenjörer ställer detta sammantaget stora krav på kunskap kring hantering av risker vid utveckling och handhavande av medicintekniska system. Kursens upplägg Kursen ges på distans och är lärarledd med föreläsningar. I kursen ingår ett mindre projekt som utförs under handledning på den egna arbetsplatsen. Kursen har 25% studietakt, och arbetstiden du behöver lägga ner motsvarar cirka 7 arbetsdagar. Mål med kursen Efter avklarad kurs har du en ökad kunskap om säkerhetsaspekter kopplade till medicinsk teknik. Du har även kunskap om säkerhet, lagar och bestämmelser för medicinteknisk utrustning. Målgrupp Kursen riktar sig till medicintekniska ingenjörer eller andra yrkesgrupper verksamma på sjukhuset eller inom sjukvården.

  About the courseRenewable hydrogen stands out as a highly promising solution to decarbonize heavy industries and transportation sector, helping to achieve the climate goals of Sweden- reaching net zero emissions by 2045. The terms renewable hydrogen, clean hydrogen or green hydrogen refers to hydrogen produced from renewable energy or raw material. The utilization of renewable hydrogen for industrial applications necessitates the development of the entire value chain, from generation and storage to transport and final applications. Unlocking the potential of hydrogen economy in Sweden involves not only technological advancements and infrastructure development but also a skilled workforce. This course offers an introduction of renewable hydrogen as a pivotal component for industrial applications, focusing on its generation, storage, transport, and utilization within industrial contexts. Participants will gain a comprehensive understanding of the technical, economic, and environmental aspects of renewable hydrogen technologies, such as electrolysis, fuel cell, and hydrogen storage and distribution solutions, preparing them with essential knowledge and foundational insights for advancing the decarbonization of industrial processes through the adoption of hydrogen-based energy solutions. Aim and Learning OutcomesThe goal of this course is to develop a basic understanding of renewable hydrogen as a pivotal component for industrial applications, focusing on its generation, storage, transport, and utilization within industrial contexts.The learning outcomes of the course are to be able to: Explain the fundamental knowledge and theories behind electrolysis and fuel cell technologies. Compare and describe the differences of existing renewable hydrogen generation technologies (PEM, AE, AEM, SOE, etc.), and existing fuel cell technologies (PEMFC, MSFC, SOFC, etc.. Describe the principles of hydrogen storage, including gas phase, liquid phase, and material-based storage and thermal management of storage systems. Identify the challenges of hydrogen transportation and be able to describe relevant solutions. Examples of professional roles that will benefit from this course are energy and chemical engineers, renewable and energy transition specialists, policy makers and energy analysts. This course will also support the decarbonization of hard-to-abate industries, such as metallurgical industry and oil refinery industry, by using renewable hydrogen. This course is given by Mälardalen university in cooperation with Luleå University of Technology. Scheduled online seminars April 22nd, 2025May 19th, 2025 Study effort: 80 hours
