Healthcare Delivery Systems and Technologies, Spring 2018

This course introduces systems engineering and data analytics applications in the healthcare context, with an emphasis on the integration of healthcare and well-being technologies. A basic overview of the U.S. healthcare delivery system, its components, and challenges will be provided. The course will develop a fundamental understanding of quantitative tools used to perform system analysis and modelling, evaluate and improve overall system quality and performance, and assess the impacts of technology integration into healthcare. Independent learning and practical applications are reinforced through homework, case studies, and projects.
