Project Sumary

This project aims to train future professionals in the area of mobile application development oriented to the health sector, serving both the acquisition of new skills to improve their technical mastery in an environment of multidisciplinary teamwork, as well as the development of transversal skills in high demand in the labor market. Likewise, entrepreneurship will be encouraged with specific training activities.
