Healthcare MBA

The OHSU-PSU Joint MBA in Healthcare Management integrates the mission of both institutions - where healing, teaching and discovery come together to change lives, build community and serve the economic vitality of the region. Taught in a hybrid format of both in-person and online learning, this program allows students flexibility and convenience to fit their lives while gaining the skills and knowledge needed to transform the business of healthcare.

"With rapid, systematic changes happening within the healthcare industry, there is an increasing need for leaders who not only understand the industry, but possess the business acumen and professional competencies necessary to lead profound change. By applying sound business concepts, healthcare leaders can invigorate the industry with innovative solutions, often adapting best practices from other industries."
