Why Studying Abroad is Life Changing – Erasmus Master in Medical Technology and Healthcare Busines

Tell us how you think participating in this Master degree will be life-changing and discuss your motivation to study abroad ?

Studying abroad in Europe will let me see how medical technology and healthcare business operate in completely different systems. I want to learn how hospitals in Germany, Portugal, and France handle technology adoption, regulations, and workflows. For example, seeing how a German hospital integrates a new diagnostic device into daily routines will help me understand how to design systems for Indonesian hospitals in the future.

Living and studying in three different countries will also expose me to new perspectives and ways of solving problems. Working with professors, clinicians, and classmates from around the world will show me approaches I have never seen in Indonesia. This will directly influence how I design, implement, and manage healthcare technologies back home.

This programme feels like the perfect next step for me because it combines the technical, clinical, and business sides of healthcare in a way I've never experienced before. I've always wanted to build solutions that actually work in hospitals and improve patient care, not just in theory. Studying here will give me the skills, connections, and confidence to take on real challenges in Indonesia's healthcare system and make a difference for patients and medical staff.

Your response is not well rounded. The reviewer will be looking for a response that mixes the social life changes, academic improvement, and career evolution in your response. This is not just about developing your professional side, it is about learning about who you are through the cultural exchange. It is allowing you to become an enhanced professional through networking, it is looking at how you can become a better individual overall because of the international and cultural exposure you will be gaining as a scholar of this program.

The current answer is too basic and one dimensional. Try to respond to all aspects of personal development in the revised version. Most scholars in this program are excited about the knowledge and cultural exchange, I could not find that excitement in this response.
