Description
Health care facilities
have become increasingly complex to manage due to a number of factors:
increased governmental regulation, demand for accountability, advances
in healthcare technology, the changing demographics of the country, and
the variety of reimbursement systems. There is a pressing need for qualified
health care administrators to plan, organize, direct, and control the
organization's resources. Career opportunities abound for capable, highly
skilled individuals. To help meet this need, the Master in Health Administration
program in the College of Health Professions offers two formats, one a full-time traditional day program (residential
format) and one in an executive format via on-line course delivery. The executive MHA consists of 54 semester hours, 48 semester hours of core coursework
and 6 semester hours of elective coursework. While both
programs are designed to develop the health care leaders of tomorrow,
the Executive program is designed for working health care professionals
who wish to continue working and pursure their education to advance their careers. Executive MHA students may attend as full-time or part-time student.
International Applicants
Due to the distance-education nature of this program, MUSC is unable to issue- I-20 forms to allow students to obtain F-1 student visas. Only U.S. citizens, permanent residents, and those holding other valid U.S. visas will be accepted.
Requirements
An applicant to the
Master in Health Administration program must have a baccalaureate degree
from an accredited institution of higher learning. Applicants are preferred
who demonstrate a cumulative GPA of 3.0 in all baccalaureate studies.
Any previous graduate work should reflect a GPA of 3.0 or above. A formula
using the GPA and GRE or GMAT scores is used to assess eligibility for
admission. Additional requirements can be found at http://www.musc.edu/bulletin/chp/mha/index.html
