Advances in technology have resulted in vast amounts of data becoming available to researchers and healthcare administrators. Organizing, analyzing, and utilizing this information for translational research that bridges discovery and clinical care is one of the biggest challenges facing the current generation of data scientists.
The University of Chicago’s Master of Science in Biomedical Informatics (MScBMI) program prepares students to lead healthcare’s evolution into an era where organizations will apply their data to meet these goals. Our curriculum provides professionals from an array of disciplines with the skills and confidence to understand, build, and improve informatics solutions that can help address the most significant challenges in healthcare today.
