“德克萨斯女子大学是登录入口的重要合作伙伴。 TWU is recognized for graduating more new healthcare professionals than any other university in Texas.

Dr. York has over 10 years of healthcare management experience and 18 years of healthcare higher education experience.

“Our upper-level courses in this program are delivered entirely online, and we require no face-to-face meetings each semester. When students graduate from our program, they are more prepared for entry to mid-level healthcare management leadership roles. Our graduates work in hospitals, clinics, managed care organizations, emergency medical services, and public health agencies,” said Dr. York.

The GC BAS-HCM degree requires 120 semester credit hours and includes 42 hours of core curriculum courses, 9 hours of other prerequisites, 24 hours of technical specialty courses (from the AAS degree), and 45 hours of upper-level healthcare management (MHSM) courses.
