The Postgraduate Health Informatics & Analytics (PGHIA) programme is an ideal programme for current health and social care practitioners who are looking to gain additional knowledge and skills in digital innovation. This accelerated, modular, and blended learning initiative offers exceptional flexibility to those currently working in the field.
The MHIA is a 40-credit programme in 2 semesters, offered in three levels (Postgraduate Certificate, Postgraduate Diploma and Master), and allows for multiple exit from the programme. Students will enrol into the Masters programme but they can exit at the Postgraduate Certificate (after 1 semester) and Postgraduate Diploma (after 1.5 semesters). Students can choose to complete all modules of the Master programme within 1 year as full-time students, or within a maximum period of 6 years as part-time students.
IMU also aims to equip working adults in the area of Health Informatics through micro-credential courses. “Introduction to Data Engineering – Application to Healthcare” will be offered from 16 October 2023 onwards. This course helps you ascertain your readiness and commitments for the MHIA programme. The course aims to build an understanding on the needs of data science, data management and data engineering in the healthcare sector.
