“The relationships I formed during MHI are priceless,” says Lee. “I have gained lifetime friends, mentors, and industry connections who have propelled me not only in my career but also in my personal life.”
MHI is a unique offering, and one of the few programs in Canada that provides graduate learning in health informatics.
