Abstract
The paper gives information on education and training covered by the Joint European Project (JEP) entitled 'Education in the Methodology Field of Health Care, EuroMISE (European Education in Medical Informatics, Statistics and Epidemiology)', that has been running for 3 years (1993-1995) under the umbrella of the European TEMPUS-PHARE programme. Training and education in EuroMISE consists of three overlapping methodological branches: Medical informatics (MI), medical statistics (MS) and epidemiology (E). The teaching scheme has been developed in cooperation between 11 universities in the European Union and Charles University in Prague (four medical faculties, the Faculty of Mathematics and Physics and the Faculty Hospital) together with the Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic (Institute of Computer Science). The paper shows EuroMISE targets, structure of EuroMISE courses and conferences and gives further views to the future in this field of education.
