Thanks for your interestSat Oct 01, 2005 05:17 PM I have come across a few MBA courses which are focussed on hospital and healthcare management. Each one seems to be different hence the confusion. I want to do a distant learning course. I am still unsure whether to choose european or US university |

Hi Parag,Fri Oct 07, 2005 10:50 AM Looks to me like Boston University and George Washington programs stand out in the US in that field. And both have distance learning options. Europe, particularly Germany, also has some programes with that emphasis, too. |

I had recently contacted the Association of MBA in London. They said that there is no accridated MBA programme in MBA healthcare management. All they have is MBA with a specialist module in the above. Does anyone have more information on this.

Responding to "parag" above, it could be that there is no special category in AMBA for health care MBAs, yet. Perhaps too specific. Did they give any advice about the best programs, though?

This is spam. And not even particularly good spam at that. Someone cancel this joker's account.

Hi Advi,Mon May 26, 2008 08:10 PM Here's a couple I came up with. Maybe they'll have something you're interested in. I can't quite remember whether you specified what country you'd rather be in, so it's a bit international. Narrow it down a bit for me and I can be a bit more precise. www.mbahc.info/ www.hbs.edu/mba/academics/healthcare.html mba.yale.edu/mba-e/ owen.vanderbilt.edu/vanderbilt/Programs/healthcare… www.healthcaremba.org/index.html www.abdn.ac.uk/prospectus/pgrad/study/taught.php?c… Just make sure you watch Michael Moore's 'Sicko' first, yeah? |

For an MBA in healthcare the same rules are applicable as for MBAs in general: Several years of work experience are exected usually, but admission requirements can vary significantly from one school to another. Therefore I advise you to do a thourough research. Thu May 29, 2008 10:57 AM Internships are not at all enough, usually, but in the US you might find programs without the work experience condition. Work experience is relevant if it is in positions of responsibility - it won't help much to have worked as a nurse for instance |

Hi guys,Thu Jun 26, 2008 08:40 AM I am also looking for an opportunity to do my MBA with focus on hospital or healthcare management in the US. Parag you have mentioned a list with universities with such majors in the States. Would you be so kind to send me that list? But I am not sure if I should do my MBA in the US, Canada or somewhere else. It would be helpful to have a list with universities which have MBA programs in healthcare management in Asia, Europe and North America. Thanks. Frank |
