Description:
This course provides students with an introduction to the concepts of data acquisition, information management, and the processing of information as it generates knowledge for the application to health care delivery, education, and research in a global community. Students have the opportunity to access data, to interpret data, to plan and evaluate appropriate interventions based upon knowledge acquired electronically, and to communicate information electronically. Emphasis is given to the ethical and critical assessment of urban populations served by the University of Massachusetts Boston and the application of current and future electronic networks in multidisciplinary health care delivery.
