title: International Master Classes in health informatics.
abstract: Master Classes arose within the performing arts and are now being offered in system sciences. The IPhiE group of faculty from six universities in Europe and the United States has offered Master Classes in health informatics to provide an integrative forum for honors students. Featured are international views of health systems, varied opportunities for student interaction and promotion of informatics professionalism. Five years of experience indicate the success of this concept and suggest changes that will be considered for the future.
