Overview

Health Informatics from University of Pittsburgh is available on campus and online. You may complete it through full- or part-time study, depending on your individual needs.

Quick Facts:

All students enrolled in the Health Informatics track are required to complete 36 credits. Courses are chosen with the advisor and a Plan of Study will be developed to enable each student to design an in-depth study of Health Informatics taking into account student’s previous academic preparation and experience.
Around half of our courses are only offered once per academic year. In this case, if a student fails to successfully complete a course, the student must retake the course the next academic year. Furthermore, this may also prevent the student from registering for the advanced-level courses and delay the date of graduation.
The Health Informatics curriculum allows students to choose from required courses and elective courses. Five elective courses are required to be chosen from courses offered in the department, two elective courses can be chosen from courses offered in the department, other departments in the SHRS or other academic programs within the University.
