The MMCI program has three unique and important characteristics for you to consider:

The curriculum is a combination of business and health informatics courses taught by thought leading Duke Faculty, who work at the intersection of health care and technology. Please review the faculty profiles and consider their experience and expertise.
Second, the program is designed to foster peer-to-peer learning with a strong diversity of experience and perspective represented in the class. You will be challenged to work in small study teams, made up of individuals who have different backgrounds from yourself. As you work together to solve the challenges presented in curriculum you will have times to lead, times to follow and you’ll grow through both. Consider what MMCi graduates say about their experience with their peers.
Third, the MMCi program delivers a customized and focused career development program. Students are prepared for job search if they are seeking a new role, or career development if they plan to grow in their current organizations. Additionally, through industry panels and special topics speakers, students are exposed to a wide variety of health industry firms, which have informatics as a core part of their business strategy. These events create both learning and networking opportunities.
It is the goal of the MMCi dedicated team of Catherine Diederich, Ellen Baker, and I to ensure the MMCi program provides you with the best educational experience you can find. In turn, we have the benefit of working with highly motivated, optimistic people who are making an investment in themselves, and a commitment to improving quality and lowering the cost of health care.
