卫生技术评估（HTA）是一个综合性以及多学科的领域，以系统、透明、严谨的方式获得并合成与卫生技术相关的医疗、社会、经济和其他更广泛问题的信息。
在这方面，“卫生技术”的定义广泛，包括用于预防、筛查、诊断、治疗、康复或缓解的药物、医疗设备、程序和系统。
卫生技术评估理学硕士（MSc）专业旨在培养可在学术界、卫生政策或运输组织或私营部门工作的毕业生。
Health technology assessment (HTA) is an integrative and multidisciplinary field in which information about the medical, social, economic and other broader issues related to a health technology is obtained and synthesized in a systematic, transparent and rigorous robust manner.
In this context, “health technologies”are defined broadly, and include pharmaceuticals, medical devices, procedures and systems used for prevention, screening, diagnosis, treatment, rehabilitation or palliation.
The master of science (MSc) program in health technology assessment is intended to produce graduates who could work in academia, health policy or delivery organizations, or the private sector.
