Abstract
At the University of Newcastle, the 5-year undergraduate programme in Medicine has been developed as a problem-based, self-directed, fully integrated curriculum. Curricular integration involves not only the basic and clinical sciences, but also population medicine, critical reasoning and the development of a broad range of professional skills. Medical informatics has been seen as an increasingly important professional skill and the integrated nature of the curriculum has provided an appropriate setting for the introduction and continuing development of this component of the curriculum. Over the last 3 years this component has been developed to be incorporated into the curriculum for the health sciences within the faculty, becoming health informatics. Informatics for undergraduate students in medicine and allied health professions must be developed as a relevant and useful component of the curriculum.
