Hi.

Can anyone tell me where I can find the rankings for Healthcare MBA programs? I tried the usnews website but couldnt find any info there. Any information you can give would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

are you talking about healthcare specialties / concentrations in an MBA program? or a separate healthcare type program (such as the MHA or MPH) ?

if you are talking about an MBA degree with a focus on healthcare, most top business schools have concentrations in this field. i don't know what the rankings are for these programs, although anecdotally i have read that wharton and duke (fuqua) have 2 of the best healthcare specializations within their MBA programs.

a good way to start would be to go on a few of the top schools' websites, and browse their employment statistics for full time offers. look at quality of recruiters in this field (big pharma, hospitals, etc.) as well as placement stats. if a decent percentage of grads are choosing the pharma/healthcare field, with top pharma and biotech firms recruiting at the school - then this would indicate a fairly strong program.

Shadow - I saw that you turned in your app to CBS in round 2 and were invited to interview. Could you let me know when you turned your app in? I turned mine in early Jan but have not heard back.

Thanks,

Concentration in health care is not offered everywhere, and for that reason, its a bit difficult to find a good listing. However, we recommend that students choose a business school location within the region in which they will seek employment. In this way they can get to know companies and hospitals as well as the legal and social issues unique to particular regions.
