Overview
About the Program
Managing the country’s health care system offers not only new employment prospects, but also provides challenges given the transformative changes occurring in the industry. Health administration and health services management are two of the fastest growing fields with employment growth projected at between 20-25% through the early 2020s. Career choices are both exciting and broadly ranging, including hospital administration, long-term care management, consulting firms, managed care organizations (HMOs), hospices, home health organizations, pharmaceuticals, insurance, medical group practices, marketing, and more.
The Health Administration program of Rutgers University, which leads to a Bachelor of Science (B.S.) degree, provides students with the skills, competencies, and relationships to become highly-effective supervisors and managers. Graduates of this program will have secured competencies in general management, a strong and effective set of communication skills, an understanding of the importance of ethical business conduct, as well as participation in an intense professional internship.
