Master of Healthcare Administration (MHA)

Number 2 ranked Master of Healthcare Administration program in the U.S.

The Master of Healthcare Administration (MHA) is designed for students with minimal healthcare management experience who want to pursue management and leadership positions in healthcare settings. Founded in 1946, this top ranked MHA program has a long tradition of developing students and producing nationally-recognized healthcare leaders.

Distinct from other management programs, the Minnesota MHA uniquely integrates business principles with a deep understanding of health care delivery and complex healthcare organizations.
