Магистр наук в области биомедицинской информатики

Delve into the details of data and prepare for a career in the study of information and computation in biology and health. Students make a difference working on research projects involving Columbia’s Department of Biomedical Informatics, from modeling the atomic interactions of proteins, to analyzing patient records on a global scale, to designing new cancer therapies.

Located on the Columbia University Irving Medical Center (CUIMC) campus, the Department of Biomedical Informatics (DBMI) is both an academic department and an information services partner to New York-Presbyterian Hospital, a major healthcare provider in greater New York. One of the oldest informatics departments in the nation, faculty, and students at DBMI has set the path for the design of clinical information systems, methodologies in clinical natural language processing, and machine learning over electronic health record data. Faculty research includes the development and evaluation of innovative information technologies, which has led to enhancements in both health and healthcare.

Columbia University Vagelos College of Physicians and Surgeons (VP&S) is guided by the principle that medical education is university education. The acquisition of knowledge and skills is important in professional education, but far more vital is a profound understanding of the science, the art, and the ethic within which both knowledge and skill are applied. As a part of Columbia University, the College builds its curriculum, selects its officers of instruction, and marshals its enormous resources of equipment and clinical experience to develop in the student this understanding of medicine.

VP&S is part of a unique collection of health sciences schools that make up the Columbia University Irving Medical Center, an integral part of the Washington Heights community in upper Manhattan—one of New York City's most diverse neighborhoods. Every day VP&S faculty, staff, and students work towards our mission—to care, to discover, to educate, and to make life better for people in need.
