Master Program: MBA International Healthcare Management
Learning purpose
The MBA in International Hospital and Healthcare Management is unique in its teaching and practical approach, seeking to transcend national borders and ways of thinking worldwide. The MBA Programme in International Hospital and Healthcare Management develops entrepreneurial healthcare facility managers equipped with advanced skills and expertise to master the challenges in a globalised healthcare sector. It aims at bringing together a unique group of academic experts and practitioners from a wide array of national healthcare systems in order for the programme members to gain a firm understanding of current management concepts and to analyse, compare and contrast national healthcare systems world-wide and their implications for hospital and healthcare management. Through residential modules in select relevant locations world-wide, the programme members will identify best-practices, develop a broad understanding of intercultural issues and build an international network of professionals leading the debate in developing the global healthcare and hospital sectors.
The MBA International Healthcare Management has a strictly practical focus on Industry and Healthcare. The programme is designed to have a high level of practical relevance: the know-how acquired in the study modules immediately flows into management practice. With highly qualified tutors, innovative ideas are shared in a practice-oriented framework. The intensive use of case studies, also from other industrial sectors, promotes flexible management know-how and case studies from successful international healthcare act as models of best practice
