About
This is an online program.
The MPH degree with a concentration in informatics provides a foundation for engineering data and information systems within health systems, as well as in governmental and nonprofit public health organizations, to support the collection, storage, management, analysis, application, and sharing of information to improve population health outcomes.
You'll learn how to think critically about population-level data and apply informatics approaches to address pressing public health issues such as the integration of comprehensive care services for vulnerable populations, engaging populations in healthy behaviors using information technologies, regional and global health surveillance, management of very large data sets across the health system, comparative effectiveness analysis, and appropriate use of population health data analytics to influence public health programs and policies.
