Curriculum

Our continuously evolving curriculum is designed to meet the changing needs of industry and keep up to date with emerging technologies now, and in the future. Through our innovative courses, you will learn from faculty from across disciplines and work in teams with peers from a diverse range of backgrounds.

Regardless of the certificate you choose, all MDI students take a similar core curriculum and have the option to get first-hand experience in industry through an internship, or do a research thesis.

Most full-time students will take 4 terms to complete the Master of Digital Innovation in the following sequence.

Students must meet their听certificate听requirements through a combination of certificate courses and elective options.

A typical course schedule follows this outline:

Term 1

Two of the following, determined by the certificate outlined in your admission letter:

DGIN 5100 Foundations in Web Technologies

This hands-on course examines the technologies and infrastructure required to support digital innovation.  The course examines the major components of the information technology infrastructure, such as networks, databases and data warehouses, electronic payment, security, and human-computer interfaces.  The course covers key web concepts and skills for designing, creating and maintaining websites, such as Grid Theory, HTML5, CSS, JavaScript, AJAX theory, PHP, SQL and NoSQL databases.  Other principles such as Web Accessibility, Usability and User eXperience, as well as best security practices, are explored in detail through a combination of lectures, in-class examples, individual lab work and assignments, and a final group project.

DGIN 5200 Foundations in Business

The overall aim of this course is to develop a high-level understanding of the dynamics of innovation, the distribution and outcomes of the strategic management of innovation and the relationships that are important in developing high-impact organizations. 

DGIN 5300 Law, Policy, and Ethics in Emerging Technologies

Emerging technologies鈥攕uch as digital media, the 鈥渋nternet of things鈥, artificial intelligence (AI), and financial tech鈥攁re playing an increasingly central role in how individuals live and interact with each other; how businesses innovate and create new opportunities; and how governments function and serve their populations. But the unrestrained development and use of these technologies can raise complex legal, policy, and ethical challenges. This course offers students an introduction to foundational legal, policy, and ethical issues raised by emerging technologies in a variety of contexts, with special consideration for digital innovation and commerce. On completion, students will be able to better identify, understand, and critically assess these issues and also more effectively manage and resolve them in the course of the professional pursuits.

DGIN 5400 Statistics for Health Informatics

This course covers essential statistical methods for medical research. Topics include descriptive analysis techniques and basic principles of statistical inference for comparison of means, proportions and investigation of relationships between variables using regression mod-eling techniques. Students will also become familiar with nonparametric tests and power and sample size calculations.
