The MS in Health Services is a two-year, on-campus graduate program designed to equip professionals with analytical and practical expertise for advancing careers in healthcare. Ideal for those with prior health sector experience, the curriculum prepares graduates to enhance public health outcomes, healthcare efficiency, and population health management. This Master of Science program focuses on health services research methodologies, featuring coursework in biostatistics, epidemiology, and specialized techniques like outcomes evaluation, cost-benefit analysis, quality-of-life measurement, program assessment, and community analysis. A thesis based on original research is required. The program caters to both medical professionals seeking advanced health services research training (without pursuing an MPH) and bachelor's degree holders aiming for research-oriented master's careers.
The Clinical and Translational Research specialization builds expertise in research methodologies while developing complementary skills in proposal development, research ethics, and leadership. Graduates of this track will achieve competency benchmarks set by the National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences, making it particularly valuable for participants in Clinical Translational Sciences Awards (CTSA) initiatives.
