Institute of Health Administration
Healthcare continues to experience profound change. Navigating
through this highly competitive, market-driven world of healthcare
requires more sophisticated management skills than ever. Career
opportunities in healthcare administration, management, and executive
leadership are abundant. The Institute of Health Administration
(IHA) within the J. Mack Robinson College of Business at Georgia
State University prepares graduates to assume top-level executive
positions in complex health services organizations.
Graduates of our programs are trained to think and act strategically,
and to use highly refined analytic and problem-solving skills to
meet the need for effective leadership in the healthcare industry.
The Institute offers three degree program options:
- The popular dual degree,
Master of Business Administration and Master of Health Administration
(MBA/MHA) is a 60-semester hour program that combines the disciplines
of business with applications in healthcare setting of all kinds,
together with a two semester paid administrative residency. This
program is designed for those who aspire to careers as a general
healthcare executive. It can be completed in two years as a full
time student.
- The Master of Science in Health
Administration (MSHA) is a 36-semester hour program that requires
students to concentrate in an area of business. This program is
designed to meet the needs of students who aspire to a healthcare
career in a specified area of business (e.g., healthcare marketing
or healthcare finance).
- The MBA with a health administration
concentration is a 45-semester hour program designed for those
who desire a business oriented graduate program with a health
care focus.
