Nursing Informatics
This master's specialty prepares nursing professionals to enhance the quality of patient care and outcomes through the development, implementation, and evaluation of information tools. Increasing pressures for the adoption and use of electronic information systems are creating a growing demand for nursing informatics in health care organizations and in firms that develop and sell health care information technology. Graduates of the program are able to analyze nursing information requirements, design system alternatives, manage information technology, identify and implement user training strategies, and evaluate the effectiveness of clinical and/or management information systems in patient care. Program alumni provide leadership in the conceptualization, design, and research of computer-based information systems in health care organizations and in the informatics industry. The program can be completed face-to-face or online. Full-time, part-time, and post-master’s options are available.
