Orario di apertura
The Senior Technician enhances and supports good clinical practice, has skills in the electronic and electromechanical fields, and is able to install and periodically calibrate biomedical, diagnostic imaging, and analytical laboratory equipment; provides for their testing, both preventive and corrective maintenance, and electrical safety checks.
The training, in line with "Industry 4.0" strategies, includes the acquisition of skills for 3D modeling and 3D printing in the biomedical sector, delves into the acquisition and transmission of biomedical signals, as well as the digitization of information for maintenance and failure prediction of biomedical equipment on IoHT and IoT platforms.
In line with the constant technological evolution of the New Life Technologies sector, the Advanced Technician finds its optimal placement within clinical engineering services and in public and private health care facilities, both national and international, and/or at local or multinational companies active in the production and maintenance of biomedical equipment.
Up to 25 young and adult applicants, employed or unemployed, with a five-year high school diploma
The course has a two-year duration. Up to 2,000 hours of training activities are planned, including internships
Up to 750 hours of internship, which is also possible abroad, at companies in the ITS A.Volta network
Teaching is highly practical and laboratory-based, involving alternating exercises, theoretical lectures, company internships and project work
Targeted, high-level technical courses, with the possibility of practicing the most delicate procedures directly in laboratories built to faithfully reproduce hospital environments: we consider ITS TAB to be an excellent training pathway for fostering professional insertion in the biomedical industry
End of October 2023
