Health informatics is the most promising biomedical science and information technology frontier of the 21st century. The health informatics field is revolutionizing the health care and pharmaceutical industries in countless ways, using information and technology to improve health care and advance biomedical research.
To address a critical need for health informatics training, the Rutgers SHP Department of Health Informatics offers a complete career ladder in the fields of health data analytics, health information management, and clinical research management. Programs are available as completely online, completely on-campus, or a combination of both.
