The Training in Informatics for Underrepresented Minorities in Public Health (TRIUMPH) Consortium is led by the University of Minnesota’s School of Public Health and School of Nursing and includes Bethune-Cookman University, Georgia Southern University, and the University of South Florida. The five-school consortium aims to advance health equity by creating sustainable pathways to careers in public health informatics and technology for underrepresented students and individuals already in the public health workforce. TRIUMPH is funded by a four-year, $7.9 million grant from the U.S. Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology as part of its Public Health Informatics & Technology Workforce Development Program (PHIT Workforce Program).
The TRIUMPH Consortium supports the AMIA First Look Program, which introduces undergraduate and graduate students with an interest in informatics and/or S.T.E.M. (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) to the field.*
