With a commitment to excellence and innovation, UMass Global's MHA program stands out by offering unparalleled customization and career advancement opportunities for healthcare professionals. According to Dr. Dania Baba, Assistant Professor of Healthcare Administration at UMass Global, “What sets us apart is the flexibility, not only in time but also in the disciplines that students are interested in. Whether you're already in the field or transitioning from another industry, our program allows you to tailor your education to match your career aspirations."

The Master of Healthcare Administration program at UMass Global caters to a diverse range of students, from those with no prior experience to seasoned directors and physicians looking to transition into administration. "There is a wide range of students," Baba said. "Our courses are developed in a way that allows students to choose their level and discipline based on their career development."

UMass Global's MHA program integrates real-life healthcare scenarios into every course through case studies, offering practical experience and insights.

Additionally, the program provides electives across business disciplines, allowing students to tailor their education to their interests and career objectives. "If they are already in healthcare, all of the courses are healthcare-focused," according to Baba. "But they can choose to strengthen their emphasis in areas such as finance, human resources, or IT."
