Course Sequence (Online)

Online Program

Currently we offer the Health Data Analytics and Health Informatics Management concentrations in the fully online Master of Science in Health Informatics program. The fully online program takes 2 years to complete.

Fully online students take courses in a specified order. Courses are offered in a condensed 8-week format, with students taking one course at a time. The content of courses, objectives, evaluation methods, and outcomes are identical to those for the on-campus program. Only the delivery format is different. The table below shows the sequence of courses.

Note that students that started in fall who need to take a break in the program need to skip entire semester (2 courses) to re-join the following spring cohort. Similarly, students that started in spring who need to take a break in the program may need to skip 4 courses to re-join the following fall cohort. It is critical to discuss absence with the program advisor to plan properly and avoid delayed graduation.
