“The faculty…had so much passion and so much energy for developing us. I was already sold on the program, but they just tipped the scales for me. It was the best decision that I’ve made.”

George Ellis ’17 – PCG Basketball

“Concordia has ensured that I am receiving a credible and reliable education. I feel as though every day I leave my classrooms more knowledgeable than I was when I first entered.”

FAQs

What is health administration and leadership?

Healthcare management, administration, and leadership all refer to moving health organizations forward. By studying leadership and management in health, you position yourself for the business side of the industry.

Is healthcare leadership a good degree?

Not only does a healthcare leadership degree introduce you to the financial management of healthcare organizations, it prepares you to improve healthcare services and patient care.

Plus, healthcare management is a growing field, with employment expected to increase more than seven times faster than the average occupation from 2023 to 2033.¹ That equates to over 61,000 open roles on average.
