A Curriculum for Security Assured Health Informatics

信息科学学院(SIS)的信息科学与电信(IST)项目和匹兹堡大学健康与康复科学学院(SHRS)的健康信息管理(HIM)项目正在合作开发安全保障医疗信息学(SAHI)的综合课程。其结果是一个新的课程，它全面整合了健康信息学和信息保障(IA)，并提供了学士、硕士和博士级别的课程增强，并开发了综合设施，以促进SAHI地区的教育和研究活动。SAHI课程有助于培养具有全面的HIM和信息保障专业知识的高素质专业人员，这将有助于满足对受过培训以确保美国网络空间安全的劳动力的迫切需求。该项目培养专业人才以满足宾夕法尼亚州西部地区的研究和就业需求。SAHI课程包括多个研究生级别的SAHI课程，其中包括IST计划中侧重于医疗保健IT(HIT)的部分，以及HIM计划中侧重于医疗安全和隐私(HS&Amp；P)的轨道。BS的课程正在修改，通过课程改进提供热门的S和宝洁课程。通过修改现有的网络和安全(N&A；S)轨道，正在实施新的SAHI轨道。最后，现有的BSIS途径正在扩展，以创建SAHI 4+1 FastTrack计划，允许学生在5年内获得理学士和硕士学位。通过广泛的审查和反馈收集，正在使用形成性和终结性效果评估对该工作进行严格评估。教学发展和远程教育中心将根据柯克帕特里克的四级评估模式创建适当的评估方法。

The Information Sciences and Telecommunications (IST) programs at the School of Information Sciences (SIS) and the Health Information Management (HIM) program at the School of Health and Rehabilitation Sciences (SHRS) in the University of Pittsburgh are working collaboratively to develop an integrated curriculum on Security Assured Healthcare Informatics (SAHI). The result is a novel curriculum that comprehensively integrates Health Informatics with Information Assurance (IA) and provide BS, MS and PhD level curriculum enhancements, and a development of integrated facility to foster educational and research activities in SAHI areas.The SAHI curriculum contributes to preparing high caliber professionals with comprehensive HIM and Information Assurance expertise that will help to address the critical and immediate need for a workforce trained to secure America's cyberspace. The project produces professionals to fill research and employment needs in the Western Pennsylvania region.The SAHI curriculum consists of multiple graduate level SAHI tracks with components focused on Healthcare IT (HIT) within the IST programs, and a track focused on Healthcare Security and Privacy (HS&P) within the HIM program. BS curriculum is being modified to provide HIT S&P curriculum through course enhancements. A new SAHI track is being implemented by modifying the existing Networks and Security (N&S) track. Finally, the existing BSIS track is being extended to create a SAHI 4+1 FastTrack program that allows a student to earn BS and MS degrees in 5 years.The work is being rigorously evaluated using both formative and summative effectiveness evaluations through extensive reviews and feedback collection. The Center for Instructional Development and Distance Education will create appropriate evaluation methods according to Kirkpatrick's four-level evaluation model.
