School of Information 624

Step into the role of a data consultant and use data to facilitate change in healthcare research, quality improvement and patient outcomes, and population health. Data consultants act as the bridge between the leadership and project stakeholders, and the data analysts to help in translating the data into actionable results. Their expertise lies in effective communication, scoping of projects, and needs assessment. They examine data, processes and technologies to evaluate current state and critical problems.

Bioinformatics 525

This course provides an introduction to the principles and practical approaches of bioinformatics as applied to genes and proteins. The overall course content is broken down into 3 sections focusing on introductory programming and data management, statistics, and systems biology, and respectively.

 

Learning Health Sciences 610

Real health data is complex, often unstructured, at times inaccurate, inconsistent, contains missing values, and is organized for clinical care rather than to meet analytic needs. Learning from health data requires a solid grasp of data operations, data visualization, statistics, and machine learning, as well as an understanding of ethical and legal frameworks guiding health data privacy and security.

Health Management and Policy 669

This course covers relational database theory and database-web systems with applications to health care.  The students are expected to develop a working knowledge of design, implementation, administration and maintenance of small to medium relational database systems.  The students will also be exposed to current technology for deployment, use and administration of relational databases through the Internet.
