Course Details
Modern healthcare is interconnected on a global scale. Expert healthcare managers facilitate effective person-centred care at the local level, appreciate the broader national and international contexts of sustainable services, and recognise and respond to global trends in their local context. If you’re an existing healthcare professional with a Postgraduate Diploma in Healthcare Management, then the University of Bolton’s MBA Global Healthcare Management (top-up) aims to further develop your understanding of the nature, business and management of healthcare provision to meet these demands.
By combining study and training across the three areas of healthcare, management and research, we will guide you as you gain a deeper understanding of business administration in the healthcare context. We’ll support you to develop your knowledge of global health challenges and how they can be addressed, as well as how healthcare systems can respond effectively, and the place of business management within health practice. Primarily this course will focus on developing your strategic thinking and practice-focused research skills, as well as highlight tools and resources that can help you to develop practical solutions and transferrable skills.
The University of Bolton’s MBA Global Healthcare Management (top-up) programme will support you to develop a critical understanding of global healthcare management perspectives and how these shape business management practices in a local setting. Throughout the course, you’ll have the opportunity to cultivate your intellectual capabilities of research, critique, synthesis and innovation, culminating in a master’s level dissertation. We’ll support you to gain a critical understanding of healthcare systems and decision-making, preparing you to improve business and management practice in your workplace.
