Using Digital Technologies to Improve Health Outcomes

SPH GH 806

Located at the crossroads of technology, informatics and public health, digital health (clinical and public health practice supported by digital devices and services) emerged from its pilot stage in the early 2010s to become a central component of modern public health practice. In this course, you will learn how to design, develop, implement and evaluate digital health tools. You will also learn about the current state of the field, what career paths are available to digital health specialists, and how a background in digital health can be useful to all public health practitioners. This course is suited for students who are at least in their second semester and who are familiar or interested in learning more about how technology intersects with the health sector.
