Saint Louis University

The B.S. in Health Management is offered through the College for Public Health and Social Justice, which is accredited by the Council on Education for Public Health. Health management is a major for students interested in business, health care, and health and wellness in communities. 

Health care delivery is highly complex, and there is a need for trained individuals who can work toward recommending, implementing, operating and evaluating changes to the system. Decisions made by health care executives help improve the lives of millions of people every day. 

A degree in health management from Saint Louis University educates students about the business side of public health and health care, built upon a foundation in Jesuit-based liberal arts, business and public policy.
