Student Profiles


Student Backgrounds

Most students have a health care background of some type as this option is designed to develop executive leaders in the health care space. However, we also have students from other backgrounds who are seeking new career paths. The most important qualification is a desire to affect change and bring improvement to healthcare. A concurrent degree is the perfect way to gain a broad understanding of the issues impacting patients and health, and to differentiate yourself from your peers.

Does this sounds like you? Meet some of our students:
