Question:

Are there degree programs in health information?

Best Answer:

There are several graduate level degrees in this field, which has ballooned into a major healthcare specialization that mixes IT and medical knowledge.  Several nursing schools offer a Masters in Nursing (MSN) in Nurse Informatics, which focuses on the flow of computerized medical information in a clinical environment – on a hospital floor or in a doctor’s office.  There are online Master of Health Informatics programs at the University of Illinois in Chicago (UIC) and at Northeastern University.  Most of these programs will accept a bachelor’s degree in almost any field, but there may be some academic prerequisites for software and statistics.
