George brown is a renowned designated learning institute (DLI). As I was searching for Health Informatics program and GBC was the only college offering a pgdm. The best part about GBC is that most of its programs have CO-OP opportunity, which helps a student get some relevant paid experience in their respective field of study. Being a dental graduate from India, I wanted to pursue my masters degree in Canada but as our degree is not accredited by the Canadian government, I had to choose for a different course. Health Informatics at that time seemed to be the best option as it is one of the rapidly emerging field in the health sector. Especially during the pandemic everyone could realize how important it is to augment information technology with the health sector.
