The authors advise the adoption of mentored internships in systems engineering, conducted at academic hospitals, directed by physicians, epidemiologists, and health administrators and overseen by faculty at attendant schools of engineering. Such internships are anticipated to directly address the immediate objectives of administrators and clinicians. Additionally, this affords future generations of health care engineers the opportunity to learn the language and methodology of the medical sciences to provide a common ground for the analysis and understanding of medical systems. In turn, this should foster collaboration between the principal stakeholders in health care delivery--practitioners, administrators, engineers, and researchers--in the collective efforts to improve the quality of services provided.
作者建议在学术医院中开展导师制实习，由医生、流行病学家和卫生管理人员指导，并由相关工程学院的教师监督。这种实习预计将直接满足管理人员和临床医生的当前目标。此外，这为未来几代医疗保健工程师提供了学习医学科学语言和方法的机会，为分析和理解医疗系统提供了共同基础。反过来，这应该促进医疗保健服务提供的主要利益相关者——从业者、管理人员、工程师和研究人员——之间的合作，共同努力提高所提供服务的质量。
