The Doctor of Philosophy Program in Administration-Health Services is a degree program offered jointly and cooperatively by the Graduate School of Management in the School of Business and the Department of Health Services Administration in the School of Health Related Professions.
The program is for those who wish to pursue the conceptual, philosophical, and applied aspects of administrative processes in the health services. It provides doctoral-level study and research in administration with specific application to health services. Graduates find employment opportunities both in academic institutions and in health care or government organizations.
The primary mission of the program is to improve health administration practice and policy through the generation and conduct of research in the management of health service organizations. The mission is accomplished through the education of individuals for academic positions, and for high-level analytical and research positions in non-academic organizations.
Our program provides doctoral level study and research programs for selected individuals with proven academic ability, who wish to pursue advanced studies in the conceptual, philosophical, and applied aspects of administrative processes in health services. A limited number of high quality students are recruited locally, regionally, nationally, and internationally for full-time study. Opportunities are provided for students to work collaboratively with faculty on research projects leading to joint papers for publication and/or presentation at national conferences.
