Research in health sciences informatics focuses on developing advancements for various medical fields (including basic science, clinical practice, nursing, public health, and library science) by addressing information requirements, designing technological solutions, implementing information systems, and assessing data management outcomes. Johns Hopkins adopts a collaborative, cross-disciplinary methodology. While primarily based in the School of Medicine, the educational initiative collaborates with all health science departments and across the university.
The School of Medicine accepts prerequisites completed at the community college level. In order to be competitive in the selection process, we encourage prospective applicants with community college prerequisites to supplement these courses by taking advanced courses in related subjects at their four year institution.
