Benefits of getting an EMHA degree at the Brooks School
Great for working professionals
The EMHA degree blends synchronous and asynchronous online coursework, as well as campus intensive opportunities, to meet busy working professionals where they are in their careers while providing them with the flexibility to meet their academic and professional objectives.
Rooted in history
The EMHA is relatively new but the Sloan Program is a pioneer in the field – the first program of its type in the U.S.
Unlimited opportunities
The EMHA degree curriculum is versatile, preparing graduates to advance in management positions in hospitals, consulting firms, primary care and ambulatory surgery centers, health care tech and pharmaceutical firms.
I’m a working professional with a family and the president of a non-profit, and I cannot recommend this program highly enough. I’m also a veteran, and Cornell is incredibly veteran-friendly. The cohort that I was with is amazing! You’ll meet some great friends, and they will be the folks who you depend on and lean on to be successful in this program and throughout your career.
