Introduction
The UTHealth School of Biomedical Informatics (SBMI) offers five graduate-level certificates: Biomedical Informatics, Applied Biomedical Informatics, Public Health Informatics, Pharmacy Informatics, and Health Data Science. These certificates are designed for self-motivated health care professionals seeking informatics education and other professionals and recent graduates who want to transition into the health care industry via informatics. Each certificate requires completing five selected courses, which can be finished in as little as two semesters. Semester credit hours earned in the certificate programs are transferable to the corresponding master's program.
The certificate in pharmacy informatics explores informatics practices centered on medication-related patient care and improved health outcomes. Students will learn about the importance of informatics practices while managing medication-related information in electronic health records, pharmacy information systems, and other automated systems.
