Finally I found it. This is the Master's program I want to be in. This is an area I have had an interest in since I was a child. I didn't even know this was a possibility when I was thinking about medical school.

The colleagues and faculty from SBMI are what I like most! So many students are in the professional field of clinical informatics and have war stories to share about EHR deployments and 'Meaningful Use.' The faculty have won several national awards and generate great discussion in their classes. My advisors have helped springboard my personal research and guide my graduate education.

The wealth of knowledge held amongst the faculty is staggering. While the professors may initially seem intimidating, after getting to know them, they only invade your darkest nightmares. SBMI is stellar!

Weekly homework, weekly tests, tons of material to cover not to mention the literature searches. It's intense but it's complete. And what they say is true: Online learning
– Rene Gelady (Certificate Student)harder. I used to think SBMI was great because online coursework meant it was ready when I was. Now I know that by the end of it, SBMI makes sure it's I who'll be ready. I'm looking forward to it.
It's quite the experience to learn and share from both the clinician and technological side, as well as how the two work together to making a difference in research and development.
