पाठ्यक्रमबारे सारश

This online DHA specialization is designed to provide a broad, generalist perspective in health administration including health care business practices and finance. The curriculum developed around the National Center for Health care Leadership (NCHL) Competency Model, emphasizes practice-based research and collaborative experiences. In the general health administration specialization, students can choose to focus on such topics as U.S. or global health policy, health care advocacy, leadership and strategic vision and planning. An assessment at the beginning of their program helps students to focus on skills they 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 health care setting. 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 executive positions in the health care industry.
