Overview

Contemporary healthcare management faces enormous challenges and requires leaders that provide effective management and oversight of healthcare organisations. The healthcare managers of tomorrow not only need to provide strong leadership, they need to consider healthcare globally, with a focus on a holistic approach, inclusivity, sustainability and communication. Through a focus on these key issues, and a strong data-driven approach, our MSc Global Healthcare Management students are ready to step into the sector and effect change in the places they want to see it.

This course is taught by international experts and enables you to get to grips with strategy and leadership alongside the study of healthcare. Youll learn about corporate strategy and performance measurement, finance and accounting, marketing management and leadership. You will also gain a detailed insight into key topics such as global sustainability in healthcare, managing integrated healthcare systems and providing an inclusive service. You will end your Master's with a detailed report with the support of a dedicated expert supervisor, a strong basis to kickstart your career.

Our Global Healthcare Management course is designed to work for both current healthcare professionals looking to get ahead in their career, or those wanting to switch lanes and jump into a new field. Graduates typically find work across many realms of the NHS and private healthcare institutions. They also go on to work in general management and consultancy both overseas and in the UK in a wide range of companies and organisations. Our global approach means you can take your expertise into any area of the world you want, effect change, and embrace a successful, global career.
