Healthcare Systems and Data Analytics
The purpose of this certificate is to prepare students who will pursue a career in health care systems. This graduate certificate will provide students a research-centered education that uses systems thinking to help solve some of the biggest challenges in global healthcare systems (i.e., the organizations of people, institutions and resources that deliver healthcare services to meet the needs of target populations). The certificate program will cover important areas such as the applications of systems engineering in healthcare, including decision science, systems thinking, human factors and digital health/smart health/mHealth (mobile health), as well as the application of data science/analytics in healthcare.
