The Master of Science in Healthcare Management and Informatics (MSHMI) is the only premier, interdisciplinary graduate degree in the State of Georgia designed to prepare the next generation of health care managers and informaticians to be visionaries, leaders, and innovators in their field. Our graduates develop the knowledge necessary to tackle the challenges facing the delivery and practice of healthcare in the 21st century.
Health Informatics is experiencing exceptional growth, with many organizations unable to find qualified candidates who understand the healthcare industry, have expertise in informatics, and are capable leaders. MSHMI meets this need by empowering graduates with a holistic understanding of healthcare practices; technology, data analytics, and informatics skills; and a mastery of management and conflict-resolution techniques.
The MSHMI program offers a comprehensive curriculum with built-in opportunities for professional engagement, networking, executive mentoring, and practical real-world experience. These elements combine to guarantee that our graduates have the tools to reach their full potential. Our faculty, industry partners, and executive board members are all committed to student success.
