Health Services Research, Policy, and Administration

The Master of Science in Health Services Research, Policy and Administration (MS-HSRP&A) provides a solid foundation in analytic skills and health care organization to contribute to data analysis in health systems.  The program's quantitative strength is enhanced by interest areas to allow students to pursue research and design analysis or analytic management in health care in greater depth. Students may also develop their own interest area.

This is an excellent program for those who wish to develop their analytical capabilities to contribute to health care management, health services research, or health policy work.
