Use Big Data and Technology to Improve Care, Lower Costs, and Save Lives
At nearly 20% of the economy, the health care system needs innovations that will improve the quality of care and reduce costs, while simultaneously improving the patient experience. At Heinz College, we believe that analytics and IT play a major role in accomplishing those outcomes and revolutionizing the field of health care.
Heinz College is the #1 graduate school for analytics education and IT management.
