Master of Public Health with a concentration in Health Management

The Augusta University Master of Public Health program prepares leaders proficient in applying and disseminating an interdisciplinary knowledge base and skill set to prevent disease, improve the delivery of health services, and promote the health of populations. The program attracts professionals from diverse clinical and non-clinical backgrounds, including medicine, nursing, allied health, business, finance, economics, engineering, and information systems. Graduates are prepared to be leaders in health care institutions, public health organizations, the pharmaceutical and information technology industries, and research institutions.

The Health Management track prepares professionals with the knowledge and skills needed for administrative and leadership positions in the increasingly complex health care sector.

The College of Allied Health Sciences at Augusta University trains and educates today’s healthcare professionals: the therapists, technicians, administrators, managers, and assistants who are the backbone of our country’s healthcare workforce. As the nation’s population ages and increasingly struggles with chronic disease and disability, as well as health care reform, our mission of educating premier health care professionals has never been more vital.

We stay on the leading edge of national trends and advances in science, technology, and professionalism. In just the last decade, we have expanded our graduate programs nearly 250 percent, bolstered our clinical mission, and multiplied our research initiatives threefold. Our students enjoy clinical opportunities across Georgia. We were an early proponent of interdisciplinary and distance education, and we continue to lead the way with our innovative programs.
