Queens University of Charlotte - Online Master of Health Administration

Blair College of Health at Queens University of Charlotte offers an online Master of Health Administration (MHA) degree program. The online MHA program is specifically designed for healthcare professionals who wish to advance into positions of leadership and influence in the healthcare industry. The MHA curriculum is based on the American College of Healthcare Executives (ACHE) core competencies of leadership, communication, professionalism, business expertise, and healthcare knowledge. Courses focus on applied learning so that students can immediately apply skills and techniques to their current position.

This 36-credit program begins in the fall, spring, and summer and can be completed in as little as 24 months. The MHA is 100% online with no campus visits required. Students should expect to spend about 10 to 15 hours per week per class on videos, assignments and collaborative interaction. A capstone course allows students to apply what they have learned in a real-world setting.

Queens University uses the MyCourses Learning Management System (LMS). Courses are completely asynchronous with collaboration taking place through Skype, IM, shared blogging, and online community tools. In addition, a virtual course wall allows students to view assignments, class readings, syllabi, and group assignments, and to interact with faculty and peers through discussion groups.

Courses for the online MHA include: Health Services Organization and Delivery; Organizational Behavior in Health Care Organizations; Financial Management I-II; Management and Human Resources of Health Care Organizations; Managerial Epidemiology, Research, and Statistics; Quality Improvement in Health Care Organizations; Clinical Issues in Health Services Management; Health Care Economics and Policy; Health Care Law and Ethics; Healthcare Information Systems; and the capstone course Strategic Planning and Marketing for Healthcare Organizations.
