Abstract:
:This paper tries to compare six Health Informatics/Medical Informatics (HI/MI) programs by a number of attributes in standardized form. The different programs and their curricula were summarized at the 5th IMIA Working Conference on HI/MI Education at Heidelberg/Heilbronn. The presentation is condensed to a synoptical scheme. Most of the information used for this purpose is taken from five individual papers about the programs presented in this special issue of Methods of Information in Medicine.
