Experience a Dynamic Integration of Theory and Professional Practice
The St. Thomas MS in Health Care Innovation is based on collaborative learning. Your instructors offer background information in class, while fellow students contribute their own experiences from a broad range of industries. You’ll pass insights back and forth, allowing new knowledge and shared best practices to emerge.
Gain Experience with Practical Exercises, a Personal Mentor
Develop your innovative approach to health care strategy with hands-on, applied learning experiences including group projects, case studies, simulations, guest speakers, and more.
In your first semester, you’ll identify a job or role you aspire to hold in 5-10 years and work one-on-one with program faculty to determine a mentor. Once the mentor is identified, you’ll spend time building a relationship with them. During your spring semester, you will continue regular meetings with your mentor to further explore the health care industry and opportunities for the future.
