An Online Healthcare Program with a Skills-Based Curriculum

The input of healthcare employers, who have a demand for employees skilled in data analysis and modeling, led to the development of our MS in Healthcare Data Analytics program.

As a graduate, you will be prepared to take positions in healthcare organizations that require you to analyze high volumes of clinical, administrative and financial data. Our graduates establish highly visible and successful careers in hospitals, health systems, health insurance companies, medical practices, technology and consulting firms, pharmaceutical and medical device companies and healthcare policy companies.
