Description of Department, College, and University
The Department of Biomedical and Health Information Sciences is within the College of Applied Health Sciences at the University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC). UIC is a public research university with a Carnegie One Research University classification. In addition to the College of Medicine, collaborative efforts span six additional health science colleges—as well as Engineering, Computer Science, and Business. UIC is a major research university with $350 million in annual external funding. As a $1.5 billion enterprise, the UI Health System is unique among U.S. academic medical centers in its focus in delivering personalized health to “at risk” populations.
BHIS houses programs at the undergraduate, graduate, and post-professional level, including a new PhD program in Biomedical and Health Informatics. The four programs include: Biomedical and Health Informatics (BHI), Biomedical Visualization, Health Informatics, and Health Information Management, consisting of 22 full-time tenure track and clinical rank faculty and 65 adjunct faculty. BHIS’s projected 2018-19 total enrollment will be approximately 700 students, and is the second largest department in the College. Importantly, of the four BHIS programs, Biomedical and Health Informatics remains the primary research unit in the department. In 2011-16, BHIS managed $4.8M in awarded grants.
Currently, research faculty in the area of BHI pursue the effective uses of biomedical data, information, and knowledge for scientific inquiry and decision-support––motivated by efforts to improve human health, particularly through the use of health information technology. Particular faculty interests include: clinical information systems and decision-support, electronic/data visualization, data simplification, communication and care coordination, mobile computing and personal health records, human-computer interaction and human factors, social networking, clinical data warehouses/data marts, natural language processing, terminology/ontologies, population health and health disparities, simulation-intelligent systems, patient safety/health information technology, social and organizational issues in computing, and privacy/security.
The University of Illinois at Chicago is an Equal Opportunity, Affirmative Action employer. Minorities, women, veterans and individuals with disabilities are encouraged to apply.
The University of Illinois may conduct background checks on all job candidates upon acceptance of a contingent offer. Background checks will be performed in compliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act.
Candidates must submit a cover letter, research statement, and a comprehensive curriculum vitae that outlines all publications, presentations, grants and scholarships, courses taught, title of dissertation and date of graduation, and three references. Courses taught should describe if the course was co-taught with a faculty member or solo-taught.
