Community-Based Health Services Management Program Description
The Master’s in Community-Based Health Services Management prepares students through specific knowledge, strategies and skills needed by health services managers across the state, region, and country.  This fully online program meets national and state expectations for best practice in Community-Based Health Services Management and provides a cohesive set of courses to support health services managers in a variety of health care and medical settings. This program has a “job-embedded” approach that encourages students to produce artifacts and outcomes that directly relate to their profession.  The online program delivery will allow to students to select their courses to meet requirements of the degree, while also accommodating the conflicting demands of the working adult. The MS is 36.0 credits, and the courses required must be completed with a grade of B- or higher. A student with transfer credits (up to 6) must also meet these same requirements.
