UTHealth Houston's McWilliams School of Biomedical Informatics and School of Public Health lead the Gaining Equity in Training for Public Health Informatics and Technology (GET PHIT) Consortium.
Through collaboration with universities and state organizations, the consortium has developed a set of publicly available curriculum resources designed to strengthen the public health informatics workforce.
These resources aim to increase the number of students and professionals trained in informatics and technology, expand access to practical training, and provide more effective ways to manage and apply modern tools in public health practice.
Curriculum Resource Overview
This collection introduces learners to foundational and emerging areas at the intersection of public health, informatics, and technology. The materials are designed to be accessible to students, educators, and health professionals, regardless of prior technical experience. Each topic area emphasizes practical skills, critical thinking, and real-world applications to support equitable and effective public health practice.
