Medical facilities (medical students, physicians, nurses, clinical coordinators, veterinary students, veterinarians)
Industry (Engineers, project managers, directors, staff scientists)

UC Davis is a thriving University unique in its extensive access to expertise and data assets ranging from its health system (with 2.5 million patients), to its expansive environmental, ecology, biology and agriculture programs. We are truly a university which can study the effect of the full environment, from farm to food, on the health individuals, and in turn practice of health on our communities.

As a student in the Health Informatics program, you can expect to have both a major research professor who will mentor you in research, and an academic advisor who will guide you through the academic portion of your degree (including research and teaching assistantships) depending on qualifications.

I encourage you to browse our website, and if you have questions please contact the graduate program coordinator at healthinformatics@ucdavis.edu.

We look forward to welcoming you to UC Davis.
