The health care management program provides medical students with
an overview of accounting, marketing, finance, law and management
to prepare them for managerial positions within the health care
industry. Students will develop knowledge and skills in research,
critical thinking, problem solving and current technology, as
well as foster teamwork and leadership skills through
participation in classroom activities. Professional ethics, and
its application within the health care business environment, is
