Health Administration combined with JD (JD/MHA) is a combined-degree program offered jointly by Dalhousie University's Schulich School of Law and School of Health Administration, delivered in person in Halifax with a September intake on a full-time basis. The program is designed for students interested in how law informs, shapes, and structures healthcare systems and policy, combining legal training with health administration coursework within a single course of study. The Master of Health Administration component holds CAHME accreditation and fulfils requirements toward the Certified Health Executive designation, which the program describes as meeting the international standard for health administration accreditation. The combined program runs four years or longer, full-time. Graduates pursue careers spanning both fields, including as lawyers, clinic and clinical operations managers, health promotion analysts, and health services managers, working in areas such as health policy development, private legal practice, and executive leadership within healthcare organizations.
