Overview

The Master of Health Administration is a 30-credit graduate degree delivered fully online, using synchronous and asynchronous learning, offered through a partnership between the university's graduate nursing and MBA programs. The curriculum combines theoretical content on managerial and leadership roles in healthcare with real-world application, culminating in a capstone project, and embeds content on Indigenous health administration throughout every course, with particular attention to northern, rural, and Indigenous healthcare contexts. Admission requires a baccalaureate or graduate degree from a recognized university, licensure in a regulated health profession, a minimum GPA of B+ (75%), and two years of full-time equivalent experience in a designated healthcare profession or in healthcare administration; applicants submit an application form, official transcripts, a curriculum vitae, a structured essay, two letters of reference including one from a professional supervisor, and confirmation of hours worked from human resources.
