The MSc Healthcare Management is a taught course which can be taken as a one-year full-time course or part-time over two years.
Boost your understanding of contemporary healthcare and enhance your career prospects with an MSc Healthcare Management. Work alongside internationally recognised academics and learn from the latest research in one of the top-rated business schools in the world.
Effective leadership and management is vital within the healthcare sector. This course gives you the knowledge to understand and implement healthcare policy in an ever-changing environment and the skills to manage change in a healthcare setting.
The MSc Healthcare Management course is delivered by a team internationally recognised for their expertise in health policy, leadership, workforce, the professions and change, governance, regulation, working across organisational boundaries and policy and course evaluation. You study within the Health Policy and Management Group, a team with more than 50 years' expertise in postgraduate teaching, research and consultancy in UK, European and international health systems.
As well as exemplary teaching on contemporary health policy, management and leadership in healthcare organisations, you also benefit from a unique personal and professional development plan through action learning, psychometric testing and personal tuition.
You have the opportunity to specialise according to your interests or career goals, and also undertake a dissertation. This can be based on research, policy analysis or a practical project. All parts of the course are supported by excellent library resources, which include on-line teaching and learning resources for each course unit.
