Sloan Program in Health Administration

When the Sloan Program was founded in 1955, it became the nation’s first health care administration program with a two-year graduate curriculum. Since then, the CAHME-accredited Master of Health Administration program has been at the forefront of innovation in the field. It is driven by preeminent faculty, engaged alumni and bright students who want to leave their mark on a dynamic, vital and growing industry. The (MHA) degree curriculum will position you to become a future leader in health care because of the knowledge and skills you will develop in management, health care organization, policy and public health. You will be equipped to manage in a variety of settings — including hospitals, long-term care organizations, pharmaceutical companies and government agencies —with an emphasis on quality, access, efficiency and innovation. The curriculum combines rigorous coursework with a robust practical training component, including a required summer internship, a colloquium series that brings industry experts to campus, elective Practitioner-Led Intensive Courses (PLICs), an annual off-campus January intersession program, field trip immersion, workshops, a mentorship program and a second-year capstone project.
