MHA Dual Degrees
Many students’ professional goals bridge academic disciplines and require expertise in multiple areas. That’s why the Eccles School offers four dual-degree options for MHA students in addition to a standalone degree with full-time and professional options.
MHA | Full-Time MBA
Program Overview: This full-time option prepares students for administrative positions in hospitals, large clinics, extended care facilities, and clinical and reference laboratories, as well as for positions in healthcare consulting and with vendors, such as those providing information technology to healthcare organizations.

Degree Schedule: Students begin the 3-year long program in Fall Semester and begin by taking the MBA core curriculum along with other first-year MBA students.

During the remaining semesters, students can take a mix of MBA and MHA courses according to their preference.
MHA | Master of Public Health
