Scholarship for Service for Public Health Applications

信息安全研究所（ISI）的主要目标是培养具有全面信息技术基础的毕业生，同时对承担政府和行业领导职务所需的一系列问题的国际，政治，法律的和管理影响有深刻的理解，这些问题与信息安全保证（IS A）在社会中发挥的普遍和关键作用有关。健康/医疗联邦信息基础设施代表了ISA技术的关键应用领域。信息安全研究所与约翰霍普金斯大学彭博公共卫生学院一起可以通过安全信息学（MSSI）硕士课程解决这一需求，提供研究生教育经验，包括与研究/开发项目相结合的相关课程，作为公共卫生政策和实践指导的准备。MSSI学生的毕业完全有资格承担联邦公共卫生部门的领导作用具有显着的短期影响，从更广泛的角度来看，将代表其他健康相关的教育机构采用，以同样解决这一关键的基础设施需求的一个行之有效的，成功的模式的可用性。在约翰霍普金斯大学，该计划的成功证明了相当大的扩展，包括加强对代表性不足的群体的参与，兼职和在线场所的发展，以及创新的教育政府/行业伙伴关系的培养的支持。

A primary goal of the Information Security Institute (ISI) is to produce graduates with comprehensive information technology foundations in conjunction with a robust understanding of the international, political, legal, and managerial ramifications of the range of issues needed to assume leadership positions in government and industry relevant to the pervasive and critical roles played by Information Security & Assurance (IS&A) in society. The health/medical federal information infrastructure represents a critical application domain for the IS&A technologies. The Information Security Institute in conjunction with the Bloomberg School of Public Health at Johns Hopkins University can address this need via the Masters of Science in Security Informatics (MSSI) program by providing a graduate educational experience comprised of relevant courses integrated with research/development projects that serve as preparation for guidance of public health policy and practices. The graduation of MSSI students well qualified to assume leadership roles in the federal public health sectors has significant short-term impact, and from a broader perspective would represent the availability of a proven, successful model for other health-related educational institutions to adopt in order to similarly address this critical infrastructure need. Within Johns Hopkins University, the success of the program justifies considerable expansion, including enhancement of the support of the participation of underrepresented groups, development of part-time and on-line venues, and cultivation of innovative educational government/industry partnerships.
