Approximately 30% of the world's data is generated by the healthcare industry, and it is expected to rise to 36% by 2025. The ability to effectively analyse and deploy this data is critical to the successful operation of healthcare organizations.
 

This information explosion, the advancement of technology in the medical field, and the need to keep sensitive data confidential, has created a robust market for health or medical informatics specialists, who work at the intersection of information science, computer science, and health care.
