Mestrado em Análise de Saúde

If you have a healthcare or analytic background and would like to deepen and broaden your expertise or enter the healthcare field, a Master’s in Healthcare Analytics (MSHA) degree is for you. This graduate program will give you the knowledge and skills you need to succeed in healthcare analytics, following all best practices in data analytics and the ability to apply them to the many facets of modern healthcare. This Master’s in Healthcare Analytics program will prepare you to knowledgeably engage with stakeholders around data and analytics so that you can make a difference in your chosen healthcare organization.

Healthcare is more than just doctors, nurses, and insurance providers, but includes the people working behind the scenes to support the healthcare system and ensure it functions properly. In the position of healthcare analyst, you’ll make critical predictive and prescriptive analytic decisions, managing data and information. Your expertise will be welcomed in a variety of roles within hospitals, clinics, healthcare devices or services companies, the pharmaceutical industry, insurance companies, and more. The MSHA program delivers quality education in advanced healthcare data analysis with emphasis on information systems design, the foundation of policy, optimization of clinical and medical service quality, the integration of statistical data, and more.

Now more than ever, as the pandemic has raised awareness in this field and the volume of health data continues to grow, opportunities for healthcare professionals who know how to analyze and act on data to improve patient care are on the rise. Some topics we explore in our core courses include design and management for healthcare informatics, methods for healthcare data analytics, public health informatics, and healthcare database design.

Alliant CSML Celebrates New Partnership with HIMSS

The Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society (HIMSS) recently designated Alliant International University as an Approved Education Partner (AEP). HIMSS is a premier reputable, recognized global advisor, thought leader, and member association committed to transforming the health ecosystem. This is a huge honor, and we truly appreciate their recognition of the California School of Management & Leadership (CSML). HIMSS praised our well-developed graduate programs that provide students with the latest skills, knowledge on a variety of healthcare topics and courses, and a real-world application of the educational content. We are thrilled to join this exclusive group of AEP organizations.

The benefits of being an AEP with HIMSS are numerous. CSML is authorized to offer the Master’s in Healthcare Analytics (MSHA) and Masters in Data Analytics (MSDA) with their already robust curricula now as HIMSS-approved programs. This partnership further strengthens the credibility of the skills and competencies which students receive throughout CSML’s MSHA and MSDAdegree programs. Earning a degree from an HIMSS/AEP partner school will make you a more desirable candidate to recruiters, and more competitive in the healthcare-related marketplace. HIMSS members are also eligible for a 15% tuition savings toward CSML master and doctoral programs.

Honors Program

The MS in Healthcare Analytics program now has an Honors Program for high-achieving students.

This Honors Program cohort will meet once a month for a deep-dive discussion on contemporary trending industry issues, gaps, advances, and opportunities and will engage in research projects led by faculty that are designed to further the reach of their education in a manner commensurate with their existing academic achievement. This research can lead to pieces for publication in scientific, peer-reviewed journals, and the teams who successfully publish pieces will be listed as research authors in the publication itself.

Each and every student within the Honors Program will also receive professional executive mentoring on their selected career path, CV creation, and interviewing advice, as we guide our graduates to be prepared to make their impact in their career as soon as possible.

Finally, Honors Program members will assist instructors and gain invaluable experience as both a teacher and a leader as they work with these professors on assignment preparation, assisting students with coursework, and ultimately conducting student-perspective evaluations in courses where they will provide feedback to instructors on student perceptions of course instruction.

The Honors Program is for students that have maintained a GPA of 3.5 or above for two consecutive terms and will be required to pass a CSML faculty interview as well.

Our model of theory paired with practice helps Alliant students become innovative agents of change. Each of our programs is designed to help develop professionals to do meaningful work that makes a lasting impact. Our approach to education combines theory and practice; scholarship and application. We provide a professional school environment in which students learn from a faculty of seasoned working professionals and receive practical training while still in school through a combination of internships, practica, consulting, and community service projects.

Purpose & Impact

At Alliant, success is measured not only in terms of the number of degrees awarded and the number of academic papers published but also by the impact students and graduates make in their communities. Alliant students contribute more than 1.2 million hours of community service each year as part of their professional education. Field placements, practica, and internships are often aimed at benefiting underserved communities, and students frequently engage in projects that address the real-time needs and issues in their surrounding communities.

Diversity & Alliance

Alliant has been a top producer of graduate degrees for minorities for the last six years and has been named one of the nation’s most military-friendly schools. Our students come from all walks of life, from the first in the family to pursue higher education to military veterans completing or re-starting their education to working professionals and graduates of community colleges as well as the Ivy League. We believe a diversity of views leads to a better environment for solving communal problems and inspires bigger thinking.
