Curriculum
Our undergraduate Health Informatics (HI) curriculum focuses on health care data science. Prepare to gain valuable skills in:
- Applied Informatics
- Cyber Security
- Privacy and Security
- Data Visualization
- Data Analytics
- Medical Coding/CDI
- Leadership
- Quality Management
Most of our HI courses are only offered once per academic year. If a student fails to successfully complete a course, the student must retake the course the next academic year. This may prevent the student from registering for advanced-level courses and delay their graduation date.
