y focusing on the business of healthcare, with a strong emphasis on professional development opportunities, we have established the FIU Healthcare MBA as an outstanding choice for professionals and leaders at many levels,” said Joanne Li, dean of FIU’s College of Business. “The program’s full accreditation is a strong validation of the hard work of its faculty and staff.” FIU’s Healthcare MBA was initially accredited in 2013 for three years. The Healthcare MBA is designed for early- to mid-career professionals in the health care industry who seek a greater capacity for decision-making and leadership positions in the rapidly changing healthcare environment. Both in-person and online programs are designed for working professionals who want to continue full-time employment during their coursework. In addition to world-class faculty, the program offers a broad range of courses and initiatives designed to prepare students for high-level professional and leadership roles. These include a Lean Six Sigma certification, a unique Business Analytics certificate powered by IBM’s Watson, a Global Study Abroad Program with an Advanced Certificate in Global Healthcare Administration, and a series of academic and professional residencies. For two consecutive years, 2015 and 2016, the program was ranked #1 by Modern Healthcare on its list of largest business graduate schools for physician executives. “Our home base in Miami allows us to tap the insights of healthcare leaders who are developing solutions to some of the nation’s most complex challenges,” said Miriam Weismann, academic director of FIU’s Healthcare MBA. “Thanks to our online program, we can extend this expertise beyond the local community, enabling these students and alumni to impact the healthcare industry regionally and even nationally. This is a huge point of differentiation for our program.” For more information on admissions, tuition, and financial aid, call: 305.779.9229, email hcmba@fiu.edu, or visit hcmba.fiu.edu
