Ringkasan program

This curriculum developed around the National Center for Health care Leadership (NCHL) Competency Model, emphasizes practice-based research and collaborative experiences. The Health Policy and Advocacy specialization focuses on such topics as U.S. health policy, global health policy, and policy advocacy and analysis in addition to core courses covering advanced health administration concepts and practices. An assessment at the beginning of their program helps students to focus on skills that can strengthen or build on to improve their success as a health care administrator. Students will participate in field experiences instead of a comprehensive examination, giving them the opportunity to apply their newly gained knowledge in a professional setting focused on health policy and advocacy. They will also complete an action dissertation project using participatory research and reflective study to make a practical, evidence-based improvement in their organization or community. Convenient electronic textbooks lower costs and provide immediate access to course materials. People who choose this specialization are often pursuing advanced practice or leadership positions in national or international health advocacy organizations.
