Madonna University

This new Bachelor of Science degree provides a value-based career pathway for those who want to improve health care quality, safety across all settings. Health Sciences graduates will demonstrate empathy and compassion toward vulnerable populations, consistent with the Madonna's values of respect for the dignity of each person, solidarity with the poor and social justice. Graduates will employ health promotion and advocacy theories as the field of health care transforms and new roles evolve.

This innovative, interdisciplinary major has two distinct tracks. The Population Health Care Management track prepares graduates for careers in care management, care transitions coordination, health promotion, and patient education. Graduates of the Health Care Informatics and Quality Systems Management track will be able to recognize issues that exist across the health care continuum related to transparency in reporting errors and positively impact a culture of safety and quality in our current health care delivery system.
