Master’s Degree Curriculum
To earn the Master’s degree in Biomedical Informatics, a trainee must complete a program of study approved by a committee of biomedical informatics faculty. This program must include successful completion of:
- (a) the required coursework;
- (b) a research project involving significant research, design, or development work and a written report; and
- (c) a comprehensive examination composed by the Master’s committee.
Detailed requirements can be found in the student handbook.
Students interested in approaching biomedical informatics from a perspective grounded more heavily in computer science should consider the University of Pittsburgh’s Intelligent Systems Program. Students in the ISP program’s biomedical informatics track regularly work with our faculty.
