About the Program
Designed for leaders of health service organizations who would like to explore new paradigms for taking on the opportunities and challenges of a rapidly transforming public and private health sector
The increasing demands of our rapidly expanding population, the growing complexities of health care services, and the challenges of globalization have made it even more critical for us to develop a new brand of leadership for health care institutions, both public and private.
This new leader/manager should be equipped with the appropriate managerial skills and attitudes to efficiently and effectively direct scarce resources to help build a health care delivery system that is responsive to the needs of our people in terms of availability, accessibility, and affordability.
The MBA in Health program is designed for leaders of health service organizations who find themselves managing their organizations without having had the benefit of previous formal management training. This degree program offers a new model for training leaders for the health care industry by providing them not just with the necessary business frameworks and tools, but also a broad understanding of the challenges and opportunities posed by this rapidly transforming sector.
Students enrolled in the program cover a broad spectrum of professional and educational backgrounds, including physicians, nurses and allied health professionals, as well as accountants and engineers. Its interactive and student-centered program design enables students to learn from each other as well as from a faculty lineup that includes many distinguished medical and business practitioners as well as senior academics.
