However, the extent to which academic professionals are taught DiPH-related content in their public health studies in Germany remains unclear.\r\nMethods: We used a systematic module handbook analysis to assess accredited full-time public health-oriented degree programs at German Universities for DiPH-related modules. Programs were identified through the Hochschulkompass platform and among the German Public Health Association member programs. We used MAXQDA for the content analysis of the included module handbooks.\r\nResults: We identified 79 public health programs. Of these, 10 Bachelor’s and 6 Master’s offered at least one DiPH module, all being highly heterogeneous in their overall addressed public health subfields. Regarding DiPH, 6 programs lectured on the ethics of digitalizing health and data protection, 5 programs each offered modules on DiPH in health policy, on data science in healthcare and software used for eHealth, or on the digital determinants of health. 4 programs each included modules on digital health promotion and alternative evaluation methods. 3 programs each addressed digital science communication and health technology assessment. Finally, 2 programs had modules on digital epidemiology. We found differences between the common understanding of DiPH in academia and the content in the module handbooks. The content identified in the analysis focused mainly on technical areas. Social and health science content was only marginally present.\r\nConclusions: The diverse DiPH study programs allow academic public health specialists in Germany to develop specific profiles. There is a need for further development of modules with relevance to the respective degree program to achieve comprehensive competencies in DiPH. We encourage the uptake of our analysis to develop a core curriculum in DiPH among European public health programs.","lang":"eng"}],"publication_identifier":{"issn":["1101-1262"],"eissn":["1464-360X"]},"tmp":{"name":"Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0 International (CC BY-NC 4.0)","legal_code_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0/legalcode","image":"/images/cc_by_nc.png","short":"CC BY-NC (4.0)"},"corporate_editor":["European Journal of Public Health"],"publication_status":"published","year":"2024","license":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0/","_id":"5110","status":"public","project":[{"_id":"72dfeb62-b436-11ed-9513-f39505d26204","name":"CareTech OWL - Zentrum für Gesundheit, Soziales und Technologie"},{"_id":"edf53067-b368-11ed-bde2-9f34a4102af5","name":"TransCareTech - Transformation in Care & Technology"}],"title":"How much digital public health is taught in German public health programs?
