ÃÞ»¨ÌÇÖ±²¥ Informatics (HI):

Technology is revolutionizing the way that healthcare is delivered both in the United States and around the world. The ÃÞ»¨ÌÇÖ±²¥ Informatics discipline focuses on improving patient care and outcomes through the use of information systems. ÃÞ»¨ÌÇÖ±²¥ Informaticists accomplish this in three main ways: supporting the healthcare provider, improving the efficiency and effectiveness of the healthcare organization, and empowering the patient to be more involved in their own care. ÃÞ»¨ÌÇÖ±²¥ Informatics graduates pursue professional careers with hospitals, large clinics, healthcare software vendors, and various state and federal agencies. The combination of healthcare, technical, and interpersonal skills allow HI graduates to enter these organization and be productive immediately without the additional training that other traditional technologists may require. ÃÞ»¨ÌÇÖ±²¥ Informatics is a rapidly growing field that provides graduates who save lives and impact society through the use of technology.
