Abstract

The need for programs in Health Information Technology has led Southern Polytechnic State University Information Technology Department to start a Bachelor of Applied Science in Health Information Technology (BAS-HIT). The program will allow students who have earned an Associate of Applied Science degree in Health Information Technology from an accredited technical college to enroll at Southern Polytechnic State University and obtain a bachelor's qualification with two years of additional study and no loss of credit. Students who graduate from this program should contribute in assisting the Atlanta Metro Area as the hub of Health Information Technology. This paper introduces the program development of a Bachelor of Applied Science in Health Information Technology. This follows the successful established 2+2 Bachelor of Applied Science in Information Technology (BASIT) program format, creates the credit to transfer evaluation credit and creates a tailored curriculum for the BAS-HIT students.
