Program Structure
The Graduate Business Minor for Health Sciences is an interactive, hands-on program that combines theory and practice to prepare students for the business and management aspects of their future careers in health sciences. Students have face-to-face connection with leading researchers and practitioners. They also develop rich relationships and networks with health science students from all over campus.
The program provides business skills across the wide variety of disciplines necessary to be successful in the business environment. The coursework culminates in a capstone project where students work with managers at a client firm to systematically analyze and develop solutions to a focal business challenge in their focal industry. This project integrates across the core classes and allows the students to practice solving the business problems they will run into in their careers.
The program is delivered on campus at the Fisher College of Business on Monday-Thursday evenings during summer semester. The evening format allows students to maintain summer jobs, internships, research opportunities while completing the Graduate Business Minor.
