Master of Science (MSc) in Health Informatics

Health information science (also known as health informatics) is the study of : how health data are collected, stored and communicated; how those data are processed into health information suitable for administrative and clinical decision making; and how computer and telecommunications technology can be applied to support these processes. You will learn to identify what information and data are needed and used to make effective healthcare decision by doctors, nurses, hospital administrators, government planners and other health care professionals. You can study in either our on - campus stream or the distributed ( online ) stream. Please note: only two courses in the on- campus stream are offered in a face-to-face format. All other courses are offered in our online synchronous classroom format. You’ll complete coursework and complete either a research project or a thesis.
