'''Informatics''' includes the science of information, the practice of information processing, and the engineering of information systems. Informatics studies the structure, behavior, and interactions of natural and artificial systems that store, process and communicate information. It also develops its own conceptual and theoretical foundations. Since computers, individuals and organizations all process information, informatics has [[computational]], [[cognitive]] and social aspects, including study of the social impact of information technologies.

Informatics is broader in scope than:[[ information theory]]—the study of a particular mathematical concept of information; information science—a field primarily concerned with the collection, classification, manipulation, storage, retrieval and dissemination of information in human society; artificial intelligence—the study and engineering of intelligent behavior, learning, and adaptation, in machines; or [[computer science]]—the study of the storage, processing, and communication of information using engineered computing devices.
