The explosion of medical and biological information has made it clear that innovative advances in storing, retrieving, and interpreting information are essential for health professionals and scientists. Physicians can no longer expect to master comprehensively the information in their areas of expertise. Instead, they must increasingly rely upon problem solving strategies and the ability to access systematically the information required for thoughtful patient care. The Health Informatics Program offers a unique and comprehensive graduate training program. The 28 Health Informatics faculty are members of UC Davis' highly regarded School of Medicine, School of Veterinary Medicine, College of Engineering and state-of-the-art Genome Center, creating a rich, multidisciplinary environment that parallels the diversity found within this exciting field of study.

This program is an interdisciplinary Graduate Group.
