About the Program

The healthcare industry is growing rapidly. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the overall healthcare industry is expected to add the most new jobs of any U.S. industry, increasing its share from 12.0% to 13.6%, and adding about 3.8 million positions, between 2014 and 2024. The growth in health care managerial positions alone is likely to grow 17% during this period, a rate much faster than average. With an eye toward that anticipated growth, the College of Management Graduate Programs has designed the Healthcare Management Graduate Certificate to address the needs of professionals seeking to enter this industry, and to better equip those who may already be working in the health care sector. 

The program is open to those with an undergraduate degree from an accredited institution and appropriate interests and work experience.
