Master of Health Services Administration

The two-year, 60-credit hour residential MHSA degree focuses on the organization, financing, marketing, and management of health care systems. The program prepares students for leadership roles and careers in health care, including, but not limited to health systems, hospitals, clinics, and emergency services, insurance, and consulting. The degree includes a 10-12 week internship.All students working toward the degree take a set of courses designed to provide an in-depth education in the issues, skills, and competencies necessary for leaders in the field of health management and policy.
We have designed our curriculum around a set of core competencies that define professional excellence in health management and policy. The competency base defines professional skills that we expect our students to have when they leave the program. The competencies are found in our HMP Competency Model, which is updated periodically and is based on research, the knowledge base for these fields, and ongoing feedback from professionals in the field.
