Overview

Our degree is analogous to a business degree in many ways, and it is designed to educate future health services administrators and health care managers on how to effectively plan, direct and coordinate the delivery of health care. Our undergraduate program will also prepare students for an advanced degree in health services administration or other related disciplines.

The Health Services Administration program of University of Central Florida may be completed fully online, although not all elective options or program prerequisites may be offered online. Newly admitted students choosing to complete this program exclusively via UCF online classes may enroll with a reduction in campus-based fees.

What can I do with this degree?
