Since 2018, The University of Queensland's (UQ) Faculty of Engineering, Architecture and Information Technology and CSIRO's Australian e-Health Research Centre (AEHRC) have collaborated on UQ's COMP3820 Digital Health Software Project course [1]. Students study an edX-based MOOC and attend lectures by domain experts to learn about healthcare, healthcare informatics and healthcare standards with a focus on SNOMED CT, HL7's Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR®) and the SMART on FHIR (SMART®) Application Programming Interface (API) standards. They form teams that develop SMART on FHIR based electronic health record (EHR) connected apps under the mentorship of domain experts who propose problems suitable for a FHIR app solution. In the 2024 autumn/winter semester, eighty students formed sixteen project teams. The course and the three highest rated projects are described.
