The Master of Health Administration is a professional degree preparing future healthcare executives for management and leadership positions dedicated to improving health and health service delivery across all sectors. The Hopkins program focuses on the U.S. healthcare system and is well-suited for early careerists interested in managerial and leadership positions within hospitals and health systems, the health insurance industry, and consulting firms.
The accelerated two-year residential cohort program is designed specifically for the early careerist. The curriculum includes one year of full-time academic coursework followed by a full-time, 11-month compensated administrative residency with faculty preceptors designed to provide direct experience through hands-on learning. The curriculum is founded on principles of innovation and strategic problem-solving and develops the analytical, technical, and management skills required to improve the quality, cost-effectiveness, and integration of health and healthcare organizations and systems.
The full-time residential program has a required residency component during the 2nd year of the program. The program has partnerships with local and national organizations providing full-time paid residency positions, many exclusive to Bloomberg students. However, because the residency sites have rules prohibiting the placement of non-U.S. citizens and non-permanent residents, the program cannot facilitate placement of international students, which hinders the ability to successfully complete the degree program requirements for graduation. Therefore, non-U.S. citizens and non-U.S. permanent residents should carefully consider these possibilities before applying to or accepting an offer of admission from the full-time MHA residential program.
