Excel in a Truly Demanding Field
The New England College MSHA program offers in-depth analysis of the various components that make up healthcare organizations. Students acquire knowledge and skills in leadership and managerial approaches to marketing, economics, project management, and finance, in order to foster an effective and successful healthcare organization. In addition to exploring the business aspects of healthcare administration, strategies for taking account of human aspects such as ethics, cultural diversity, negotiation and conflict resolution, and leadership styles are also examined. It is our goal at NEC to provide the healthcare industry with graduates who understand the "big picture" in this growing sector.
