B.S. in Health Services Management and Leadership

USA

What will I learn?

Health service managers are typically responsible for planning, coordinating and directing the delivery of quality service to those receiving services in hospitals, clinics, and other health-related organizations. This includes responsibility for many of the operational duties in these settings, including overseeing the training and recruitment of staff, following and maintaining budgetary and fiscal records, and managing daily operations.

This program aims to be certified by the Association of University Programs in Health Administration (AUPHA) in the future. Certified undergraduate programs are recognized for having withstood the rigors of peer review in which curricula, faculty, and educational outcomes are critically examined by peer review. External stakeholders look at certification as a way to distinguish a program from its peers.

Preparing Students for Future Opportunities

Graduates of the Bachelor of Science in Health Services Management and Leadership program can expect to be employed in clinical/administrative healthcare, health services, and population health settings (like health departments) and to be strong candidates for Master of Public Health and Master of Health Administration programs.

  • Demonstrate a strong foundational knowledge of the history, principles, theories, frameworks, and current issues in public health.
