The medium-term outlook for graduates of the two-year Master´s program is administrative and upperlevel management positions in the health care sector and related fields.

Due to the changing health care environment, the demand for qualified persons in this sector is constantly rising. Across the European Union, health systems and health policies are becoming more interconnected than ever before, with more movement of patients and professionals, higher public expectations, and wider diffusion of new medical technologies and techniques. This increased interconnectedness raises many health policy issues, including quality and access in cross-border care - information requirements for patients, health professionals and policy-makers - the scope for cooperation in health matters - and how to reconcile national policies with European obligations in general.


Contents

The full-time Master's program 'International Health Care Management' comprises four semesters of 15 weeks each and starts in the Winter Semester with 30 students. Graduates of the program are conferred the academic degree 'Master of Arts in Business'. Lectures are held in English. Attendance is generally mandatory for all lectures. Students have the option to spend the third semester or earn a double degree at a partner university abroad; the lectures attended there will be counted towards the required credit units.

In the Master´s program, special focus is laid on:

  1. Fundamental and methodical competencies with the modules Evaluation Systems in Medicine and Care, International Health, International Health Care Business, Economics and Politics, International Law, and International Management (67,5% ECTS*)
  2. Soft skill competencies, which include the module International Social Skills and Academic Research and Practical Integration, (32,5% ECTS*)

You are normally required to take an English Proficiency Test if you come from a non-English speaking country.

Most European Universities recognise the IELTS test.
