The Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Management Education Board of Directors approved the reaccreditation of the ��������ʿ�����¼ MHA program.

The Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Management Education () Board of Directors approved the reaccreditation of the ��������ʿ�����¼ Master of Health Administration (MHA) program for a seven-year term.

“Our team in the ��������ʿ�����¼ College of Health Professions has created an exemplary curriculum and the accreditation of our MHA program affirms their dedication and commitment to preparing program graduates for the rewards and realities of healthcare management,” states Doris Savron, Vice Provost, ��������ʿ�����¼. “It also means that our program will benefit from the resources and information CAHME provides to support continuous improvement of all program elements.”

“Our MHA program works to ensure students have the foundational competencies and support to succeed wherever they are at in their career journey,” states Heather Steiness, PhD, MPH, Associate Dean, College of Health Professions. “Our students are diverse in many ways: how they identify as individuals, where they live, the backgrounds they bring to the classroom, etc. As such, they not only bring that rich experience to the classroom to share with their peers, but they also contribute to more diversity among healthcare administration professionals on graduation. This supports a more empathetic and compassionate approach to the delivery of healthcare to patients and a better patient experience for everyone.”

The ��������ʿ�����¼ online MHA degree is offered in traditional and competency-based programs. Competency-based programs are designed for students with work experience and offer faculty-supported learning in which students may earn their degree at a faster pace.

“CAHME's mission is to advance the quality of healthcare management education globally. CAHME-accredited programs have successfully navigated a thorough and careful accreditation process managed by experts in the study and practice of healthcare management,” said Dr. Anthony Stanowski, DHA, FACHE, President and CEO of CAHME.

The University’s College of Health Professions offers students access to faculty that possess an average of twenty-eight years of professional experience. The current faculty includes five chief executive officers, two chief nursing officers, two chief operating officers, and twenty-six directors of service.
