Clinical Informatics Practicum

Catalog description

Through a team-based project approach, this capstone course applies the core concepts of the informatics and management courses to a 'real world' situation at Duke Health or in a similar clinical environment. Students explore the relationship between organizational strategy, implementation, and technical applications of health informatics. The practicum usually entails joining an ongoing real-world health IT project and project team, and requires a written, publication quality report of the practicum and related results.
