The rapidly evolving fields of information technology and health care demand equally adaptive curricula, which has led the 51ƷƵ School of Health and Rehabilitation Sciences’ Department of Health Information Management (HIM) to re-envision their programs to better align with the future of health care.

The most recent evolution is a shift in name for the undergraduate program from “Health Information Management” to “Health Informatics.”

Department Chair Bambang Parmanto said he is excited about how this update will advance program outcomes.

“The new curriculum and the new name will provide more opportunities for students in the program who are learning relevant skills in informatics and health data science,” he said. “As a result, it will inform employers that graduates have acquired skills in traditional health information management areas plus more technical skills in data science.”
