eHealth refers to the knowledge, skills, and tools that allow health information to be collected, managed, used, and shared to support healthcare delivery and promote health. The Master of Science in eHealth at McMaster University is an interdisciplinary program in health informatics, with an emphasis on industry-relevant academic research and development. Students can complete the degree through a thesis-based or a course-based route, each taking two years on a full-time basis, or three to five years part-time. The program draws on McMaster's strengths across health sciences, computing, and business to train graduates who can design, evaluate, and manage health information systems. It suits students interested in the technical, organizational, and policy dimensions of digital health, preparing them for roles bridging clinical, technical, and administrative functions in the healthcare sector. Admission is offered for a September start, with a typical requirement of an honours bachelor's degree or equivalent. It is delivered at McMaster University's Hamilton campus.
