Drexel University

With the booming expansion of health services in the United States, the administrative side of this field has also seen rapid growth. Drexel’s Health Services Administration program creates graduates who can keep health service providers running smoothly and efficiently thanks to a foundation of management and economic principles, with a focus on those related to healthcare. They’re also immersed in the industry at large, coming away with applicable expertise, having been exposed to the qualitative and quantitative aspects of administrative structure, operations, and policies.

While studying facets of health services such as law, economics, policy, management and more, students will also participate in interdisciplinary courses that relate to ethical, psychosocial, political, literary and historical perspectives regarding health care practices. Students also take courses in the role of healthcare for those who might be less understood, such as those who have a disability or who are aging. This prepares students for careers in paths such as public health, health communication, health, and business administration and law.
