Sloan Master of Health Administration

What is an MHA?

The MHA is a degree that positions you to become a leader because of the knowledge and skills you will develop in management and leadership, health care systems, health policy and public heath. You will be equipped to manage in a variety of health care settings — including hospitals, long-term care organizations, pharmaceutical companies, and government agencies —with an emphasis on quality, access, efficiency, and innovation. The MHA is a versatile degree. Graduates enter the job market equipped with advanced expertise in finance, accounting and marketing, and a comprehensive understanding of the health care industry.
