Health Administration - School of Arts and Sciences Students

The health administration major prepares students for entry-level positions leading to an administrative career path in the health care sector. Students learn to address administrative and management problems in long-term and acute care venues, deal with third-party payer and employment situations, and employ microeconomic theory to justify management decisions. They learn the regulations related to union, human resources, and institutional management practices, as well as the policy and ethical contexts in which administrative decisions are made.


Students in the School of Arts and Sciences who wish to pursue the health administration major must apply for admission to the Bloustein School. Applicants must have achieved a minimum grade of C or better in each of the prerequisite courses and have be in good academic standing. Applications maybe obtained from the school at
