According to site editor Carrie Sealey-Morris, the uniquely American interaction between business, government, and charity means that healthcare managers need specialized knowledge. "Careers in areas such as biomedical technology management, pharmaceutical marketing, and global health consultation go far beyond traditional hospital management," says Sealey-Morris. "This makes a dual degree combining an MBA and healthcare management a natural choice for those wanting to excel in this field. And as long as this kind of degree is still uncommon, it will have a special value on the job market. Dual degree holders will stand out from their competition." The Value Colleges' Best Value ranking of dual MBA and Health Management degrees provides a helpful guide for prospective students hoping to choose the program that will best suit their career goals.
Value Colleges is an online resource with one mission: to help prospective students find the best educational value in their chosen field.
