Application for the Master in Health Administration - Residential
Description
Health care facilities are increasingly complex to manage due to a number of factors: increased governmental regulation, demand for accountability, advances in healthcare technology, the changing demographics of the country, and the variety of reimbursement systems.

Career opportunities abound for capable, highly skilled individuals. To help meet this need, the Master in Health Administration program in the College of Health Professions offers two formats, one in a full-time traditional day program (residential format) and one in an executive format via on-line course delivery. The residential MHA curriculum consists of 62 semester hours, 53 of core courses, 3 of electives and 6 in field experience.
