Abstract:
Introduction. The digitization of the medical higher education system in the Republic of Moldova
currently is an interdisciplinary theoretical and practical direction that addresses medical, technical,
managerial, ethical perspectives. Framing digitalization in a simple, fair, user-friendly way is a priority in
terms of guiding the joint efforts (students - teachers - administration) of continuous improvement of the
university, and can create benefits at the administrative, teaching, financial, image of the institution, status,
etc. The potential is limited only to the will of the responsible managers and to the limits of the applicative
imagination of the participants
Case presentation. The USMF targets project is a self-made site that can serve as a model for creating,
modifying, integrating, and using a system that allows any member of the academic community from
student to rector to submit ideas for improving USMF, view the list of ideas available and appreciate them,
be able to view the projects availables in the institution by filters of interest, be able to launch or vote on a
petition, be able to launch a complaint - all in a simple format and accessible to the average user, in a form
confidential and responsible.
Discussion. The findings of this study clearly show that even an inexperienced user, could create and
improve free solutions in the interest of his Alma Mater, which is one of the Western basis of contemporary
study system and ideology in generally– The Private Initiative. Imagine how it would be not one, but all
users doing the same. The ethical problems that are resulting in this study coexist in the modern ethics
problems: the limits of liberty of words, the limits between professor&student roles, the right to rule of
students and professors vs administration roles of organization etc. The limits of this study are the technical
knowledge and experience of the author by the time of preparation and could be improved by the academic
community and experts always.
Conclusion. Digitization is an inevitable phenomenon of the 21st century, but it depends on how we meet
it - prepared or not to change at the price of our ability to recognize potential benefits. The more ideas we
have on this subject, the more potential chances we have of profit in various spheres and types of activities,
related or not related to the digital domain, but certainly simpler administratively expressed and approved
in this way. USMF targets it’s only a vision of how it could be in our university, and it could open potentially
a way to thousands of other notorious visions.
