Excellence in Healthcare Leadership
The U.S. healthcare system makes up nearly 20% of our GDP, with one in eight people employed in the healthcare system. As Americans age and ask more from our medical system, there is an increasing demand for healthcare leaders who can address significant challenges of quality, cost and access.
Bauer’s new Master in Healthcare Leadership degree is designed to prepare students for professional leadership and administrative careers in healthcare. The degree can be completed in 12-24 months with courses offered in the evening, at the University of Houston at Sugar Land, for the convenience of working professionals.
You will work with world-class faculty to develop practical knowledge of subjects such as leadership, strategy, law and policy, quality, health information technology, data analytics and AI, finance and economics, accounting, supply chain and operations, innovation and entrepreneurship, and marketing.
