Are you looking to grow your career in the healthcare domain? Your search ends here! King’s Business School boasts one of the leading online healthcare management courses in the UAE in partnership with Anglia Ruskin University.

We have designed the online MSc in Healthcare Management to be suitable for a broad range of jobs within the healthcare sector. As a result, students can move into a variety of senior roles within public and private healthcare, social work, and more.

During the healthcare masters, students will learn strategies for health management that reflect modern, patient-centric care. For this reason, students of the MSc will be well prepared for the challenges of senior manager jobs after graduating.

Students will cover the following topics during the MSc in Healthcare Management:

● Health policy
● Management theory and practice
● Leading change
● Effective performance
● Leadership, and more

We teach the Healthcare Management MSc from our virtual learning environment (VLE). As a result, students can access course info, view lectures, and have one-to-one meetings with tutors from home. Students can plan their studies around their jobs, thus allowing them to carry on working while studying.

Modules

Prior to the global COVID-19 pandemic, healthcare systems around the world were under growing pressure to deliver better services for less. With this in mind, we have developed a Master’s degree that includes new, inclusive and efficient models of personalised care and management.

Students will work with tutors to develop critical thinking and research skills around organisational behaviour and patient-centric care. In addition, the course will ask students to leverage on their experience to create solutions for real-world situations. Similarly, students will be asked to apply their newly acquired knowledge to the improvement of these new healthcare management practices.

We have worked with the OTHM, a UK-based higher education body, to develop the online MSc in Health and Social Management. The OTHM partnership ensures course quality and relevancy.

During the healthcare management MSc, students will study six units (each worth 20 credits), along with a dissertation module (60 credits).

At King’s, we are committed to making education as open and accessible as possible. For this reason, we deliver the MSc in Healthcare Management online from our VLE; this ensures students from both the UAE and around the world can benefit from the master’s course.

Study Options

We teach the Master’s degree via our virtual learning environment. Wherever students have an internet connection they will be able to join lectures, read library resources, call tutors and more.

As a result, the MSc in Healthcare Management is a great choice for students who want to continue working while they study.

A flexi-payment plan is also available for this healthcare management course; students can fund the Master’s degree on a full-time or a part-time basis.

Online Learning — How Does it Work?

King’s online learning blends comfort with quality. Each lecture is recorded and posted to the VLE; this allows students to catch up on study around work and home commitments. Similarly, students can arrange one-to-one sessions with tutors at a time that suits them.

Beyond the VLE, students can access the library, set up study groups, and create online spaces to share with their peers. While students may study remotely, they will never feel as if they are studying alone.

Those with the drive to improve their career prospects will find our online Master’s in Healthcare Management a rewarding and enriching experience.
