What is Informatics?

Informatics is...

  • using technology to solve problems.
  • understanding the impact technology has on people.
  • the development of new uses for technology.
  • the application of information technology in the context of another field.

Informatics is a new field of study that gives students the skills to apply information technology to another field - from health care to journalism to biology to economics.

Informaticists can then use technology to harness the power of information and make exciting new discoveries that make us more productive at home and at work.
