Your Personal Learning Community

Designed to maximize instructor attention and help you build peer relationships, our MS in Health Care Innovation program is built upon a cohort learning model. As part of a small student cohort, you’ll form strong personal and intellectual connections with the same group of professionals as you move together through the program.

Faculty members will offer their professional background, while fellow students contribute their own experiences to discussions, both online and in the classroom. Plus, your cohort will be a valuable network and resource long after graduation.
