Health Care Leadership and Administration
The HCLA online program offers students the opportunity to develop a robust foundation in systems-thinking, organization theory, human resource management, health care policy and advocacy, and leadership development. Courses incorporate both asynchronous and synchronous learning components.
On campus immersion experiences may be required each semester. The immersion experiences will provide students the opportunity to engage face-to-face with faculty, peers, and health care leaders during 1–5 day sessions, supporting program objectives and growth toward professional goals.
This program is designed to be flexible and convenient to complete, as students will be able to maintain current employment while enrolled. We offer tailored clinical experiences, with clinical placements in administration, leadership, quality improvement, human resource management, and integrative residency courses convenient to you, for a total of 420 clinical hours. Students will have the opportunity to complete a range of quality improvement and leadership-focused projects that are excellent resume-builders.
