Overview

Goals

Programmatic goals of the Health Administration program at Clayton State University include obtaining a selection of both diverse student and faculty educational and experiential backgrounds to foster increased interdisciplinary understanding of health care.

Because a health administrator supports those who provide care, it is incumbent to include both clinicians and non-clinicians in the student body to refine their analytical, verbal and quantitative skills for resolving complex health care issues. Individuals learn both cognitive and affective educational domains at the highest levels.

Objectives

The MHA has four primary objectives. They are to prepare students:

For positions of increased responsibility within healthcare,
For further career choices beyond the entry level,
With clinical, business or other backgrounds, who want to expand their careers into health administration, and
To improve the quality of care and resource use in health organizations

Additional MHA educational objectives include, but are not limited to:

Development of independent thinking in a complex world,
Development of superior health administration skills,
Promotion of pragmatic application from internship (or project) experiences

Other requirements

General requirements

The MHA program accepts students from a variety of backgrounds, but not all are ready to enter several advanced health care management courses without prerequisite preparation or coursework.
Students with business and health care management backgrounds are usually prepared for advanced work; however, individuals with clinical and science backgrounds may not be.
For applicants to be successful, they should have a previous course or preparation in basic accounting, economics and statistics (i.e., MATH 1401-Elementary Statistics or equivalent, HCMG 5020 - Health Econometrics or equivalent, and/or HCMG 5030 Healthcare Accounting or equivalent).
If these prerequisite courses are taken after admission, they do not count toward the required 45 semester hours for the degree and may not be eligible for financial aid. For further information regarding the prerequisite requirement, please contact the MHA Program Director.
