Intensive MHA (Full-Time)

This option allows you to complete the MHA program in sixteen (16) months. Normally courses start the third week of August with two intensive weeks, which are compulsory. Note that most Health Management courses are offered after 4:00 p.m., while the MBA common core courses are normally offered between 8:30 a.m. and 4:00 p.m., or (on an exceptional basis) after 4:00 p.m.

In addition, some courses are intensive and will be delivered as a combination of classes offered during a week day (day or evening), and weekend (day or evening) over a short period (one to three weeks). The detailed timetable is available well in advance to allow students enough time to plan accordingly.

Professional MHA (Part-Time)

As a working professional, you may complete the MHA program requirements on a part-time basis, with the exception of the four-month residency. Please note that in order to complete in 28 months, and in a cost effective way, the sequence of courses must be followed at all time. Normally courses starts on the third week of August with an intensive weekend (Friday night, Saturday and Sunday during the day) as well as evening courses the following week, all of which are compulsory. All Health Management courses are normally offered after 4:00 p.m. During the final session, when students are taking the residency, full-time registration is required.

In addition, some courses are intensive and will be delivered as a combination of classes offered during a week day (day or evening), and weekend (day or evening) over a short period (one to three weeks). This will require that you free yourself up from work to attend class (the equivalent of around 11 days (full day or half day) over the program duration). The detailed timetable is available well in advanced to allow students to plan accordingly.
