Health-Services Administration
Bachelor of Science Degree Program: 180.0 quarter credits

The Health Services Administration (HSA) curriculum is a four-year full-time course of study consisting of 180 quarter credits and including one cooperative (co-op) experience comprised of two consecutive quarter terms during the first half or the second half of the junior year. (Non-co-op full-time and part-time options are also available. Transfer students are eligible for the full-time curriculum with or without co-op depending on the number of approved transfer credits.)

The curriculum is designed to give students a foundation in general management and economic principles and policies related to the health care, as well as to expose students to the quantitative and qualitative aspects of the health-care industry by means of courses in health care related to policy, law, economics, management, marketing, and informatics. At the same time, the curriculum provides interdisciplinary courses dealing with religious, ethical, psychosocial, political, legal, literary, and historical perspectives regarding health-care practices and populations in need of health care. In addition, the curriculum can prepare students wishing to pursue graduate studies in health services administration, business administration, public health, law, and health communication.

.The program also provides a concentration and a minor in HSA and an online concentration and a minor in Medical Billing and Coding for Drexel University bachelor’s degree-seeking students.

Courses will be available online. A maximum of 90 semester credits can be transferred, including block credits from approved hospital-based certificate and diploma programs.
