Six of those semester credit hours will be in support courses not offered by the department. Other courses such as Telehealth and Health Informatics Consulting will be developed in cooperation with other institutions. Each student follows a degree plan developed with an advisory committee composed of onefull-time Health Informatics faculty member and an adjunct faculty member who represents the student's interest or discipline area. A total of 42 semester credit hours listed in the sample curriculum matrix for Health Informatics must be completed prior to graduation.
Continued enrollment is required unless approval from the advisory committee is obtained.
A maximum of one year of approved leave will allow for continuance in the program. If more than one year occurs, the student must be readmitted to the program. If the student makes lower than a B in that particular course the second time, the student cannot continue in the program. The computer minimum requirements will be consistent with the medical school students and will be updated each academic year. The student should verify the requirements prior to registration.
