Master of Business Administration - Healthcare Markets and Analytics

Program Description

Through the Healthcare Markets and Analytics MBA concentration, students will become prepared to analyze and use health data to make managerial decisions.

The MBA in healthcare management program teaches students to use decision-making algorithms that apply data to economic models. Their courses will focus on economics within the health care sector — an industry that accounts for more than one-fifth of the U.S. economy.

In this program, students will learn:

• How the health care sector is similar to, and different from, the rest of the economy
• How the behavior of the health care sector adheres to and deviates from key economic principles
• The crucial and ever-increasing role of data in guiding the decision-making process of policymakers in the health care industry

The goal of this concentration is to provide students with a deep dive into the healthcare sector that enables students to become players in this extraordinary industry which accounts for over one-fifth of the U.S. economy.  The concentration complements the general training students receive in the other business disciplines, but will be focused on the defined area of economics in the healthcare industry.
