A WORD FROM
THE PROGRAMME DIRECTOR
The IMU MBA in Healthcare Management programme aims to equip managers with relevant skills for leading and managing the various facets and challenges that confront professionals, managers and those keen to manage the healthcare industry. Learners have the opportunity to gain firm understanding to critically assess health systems and healthcare structures, apply core principles of management in the healthcare setting and to operate within prevailing legal frameworks. In this ever-changing world, even organisations that are not health related may see the necessity to have a manager trained in business in healthcare management not only to assist in controlling the diseases within and outside of the organisation but managing the resources efficiently. IMU MBA in Healthcare Management graduates will benefit by building their personal and professional competencies and glean insights into best practices and formulation of effective managerial and leadership strategies to ensure the organisation workforce health is optimised for better productivity.
