Using Information Technology to Prepare Tomorrow's Healthcare Professionals

The ATHENS Project, a pioneering five-year grant-funded initiative within the College of St. Scholastica's Health Sciences Division and the Department of Computer Information Systems, is focused on infusing hands-on experiences with computer-based clinical information system applications into the health sciences curricula. The goal is to graduate students from professional programs who are confident and competent in using computer-based clinical information systems as tools to enhance their clinical assessment, problem analysis, and decision-making skills.
