Overview
The initiative to digitise health and genomics information has created a strong demand for medical informatics professionals.
This course will provide you with the broad grounding you need for a range of careers as a health informatics or bioinformatics practitioner in the public and private sectors, within the UK or overseas.
We have designed this degree for graduates with analytical and inquisitive minds who want to work in professional roles that encompass computing and biology, medicine or healthcare.
Your studies will help you to develop the Information Communications Technology (ICT) skills and knowledge required to support and improve health and healthcare delivery.
Extended Masters and Enhanced Extended Masters options
If you have an undergraduate degree but do not meet the entry criteria for this course, you may qualify for our Extended Masters or Enhanced Extended Masters courses.
These courses feature four specially designed modules which will improve your academic and English skills. Once completed you can progress directly onto the regular Masters course.
You should have an honours degree (2:2 or above) from a UK university or equivalent in computing or healthcare science. We will also consider equivalent professional qualifications or a relevant HND provided you can demonstrate relevant work experience.
