• This program is primarily intended for candidates with established careers in the healthcare field who are simultaneously seeking to further advance their careers by broadening and deepening their management and leadership skill-set. 
  • Further, the program seeks to build upon the experiences of current health professionals by emphasizing value-added competencies including those related to management, leadership, strategic planning, finance and economics, quality assurance, informatics, legal and ethics, as well as research and other related areas. 
  • As a result, the MSHM degree is generally not well suited for those seeking to gain an initial foothold in the health professions. 
  • It should also be noted that the curriculum is designed and course offerings sequenced specifically for those seeking to attend the MSHM on a part-time basis.
