• Project Overview

  Bangladesh is a country with a large population, but the medical system is insufficient. For example, the problems in medical practice are the waiting time prior to examination, and the movement of the patient prior to examination. In this project, with the cooperation of Kyushu Institute of Technology, Kyushu University, together with the students of University of Rajshahi in Bangladesh, we will create a hospital system using Design Thinking. In the first year, we will establish methods for problem solving from observation, and in the second year we actually develop systems using IT and practice at hospitals.
