Targeted Infusion Project: Developing a Health Informatics Security and Privacy Program

健康信息学是美国最大的增长型产业之一。美国劳工部预测，健康信息和健康信息学的就业增长率为49%。为了满足这一需求，北卡罗来纳州AT州立大学的有针对性的输液项目，题为-开发健康信息安全和隐私程序-建立了计算机科学（BSCS）在健康信息安全和隐私（HISP）浓度的科学学士学位。这是计算机科学，数学和管理部门之间的共同努力。目前正在编制关于卫生信息系统和卫生信息学数学的新课程以及经修改的管理课程。关于健康信息安全和隐私的课程模块将被整合到计算机科学系现有的计算机安全和信息保证课程中。本科生和研究生都参与了该项目。三个学科之间的合作关系可以改善这些部门之间的协作，共同改善北卡罗来纳州AT州立大学的STEM教育，以及加强大学的网络防御中心。 该项目将从该领域代表性不足的群体中培养毕业生，以满足对卫生信息学和卫生信息技术专业人员日益增长的需求。

Health informatics is one of the nation's largest growth industries. The US Department of Labor predicts a 49% job growth in health information and health informatics. In response to this demand, North Carolina A&T State University's Targeted Infusion Project entitled - Developing a Health Informatics Security and Privacy Program - establishes a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science (BSCS) concentration in Health Informatics Security and Privacy (HISP). This is a joint effort between the Departments of Computer Science, Mathematics and Management. News courses on health information systems and mathematics for health informatics, as well as a modified course in management, are being developed. Course modules on health informatics security and privacy will be integrated in existing computer security and information assurance courses in the Department of Computer Science. Undergraduate and graduate students are involved in the project.The partnership among the three disciplines can improve the collaboration among these departments to jointly improve STEM education at North Carolina A&T State University, as well as strengthen the University's Center for Cyber Defense. This project will produce graduates from groups underrepresented in the field to satisfy the increasing need for health informatics and health information technology professionals.
