Description:

Michener’s newest program Digital Health and Data Analytics, is a comprehensive two-year, six semester program dedicated to training learners in digital health, artificial intelligence (AI), data analytics, machine learning and virtual care. This program was purpose-built for learners who see themselves contributing to the rapidly evolving digital world and its impact on health care. Designed to be pragmatic, practical and job oriented, this unique, cutting-edge program will prepare you for an exciting career in digital health, data science and AI in health care and beyond. The Digital Health and Data Analytics program is designed for university graduates, IT professionals and current health care practitioners who are interested in the introduction and integration of digital solutions, and key topics and initiatives in the health care and consulting fields.



The program delivery is flexible to allow learners to pursue the program while continuing to work and will be delivered entirely online, both synchronous and non-synchronous. Students can sub-specialize in areas such as artificial intelligence and robotics. If learners are unable to commit to full-time practicums in semester 5 and 6 there is an option to exit after four successful semesters, having met the requirements of a Post-Diploma Certificate. Learners will have two semesters of workplace practicum experience in addition to a sub-specialty course in order to complete the six-semester Advanced Diploma program.
