Healthcare is an exciting and important industry, growing faster than any other, and its importance to society cannot be underestimated given its focus on helping people live longer and lead happier, higher-quality lives. Working in healthcare requires knowledge and skills in several cutting-edge areas such as service delivery innovation, process and quality improvement, talent management, analytics, and supply chain management. The concentration in healthcare management and consulting offers students an opportunity to understand how this major sector of the U.S. economy works; to apply training in other areas like finance and marketing to managing healthcare problems and opportunities; to obtain a viable educational and career outlet for realizing their interests in advancing the social good; and to prepare for working, managing, and consulting in the healthcare industry. The concentration in healthcare management and consulting is an interdisciplinary concentration that provides exposure to several different areas of business and the social sciences important for working in healthcare.
