H.S.A.
Program
Marywood University's Health Services
Administration Program provides both an
undergraduate and graduate degree with an option to
complete both in a five-year period of time through
advanced standing into the graduate program.
The undergraduate Health
Services Administration major prepares students for
entry-level positions in health. The program
provides the knowledge and skills necessary for
administrative positions in nursing homes,
hospitals, rehabilitation facilities, managed care,
and the many other organizations providing health
care in American society. A special track
focuses upon health care delivery to the
elderly. This major integrates courses in the
social sciences (36 credits) as well as the liberal
arts (64 credits). An important program
component is an internship in a nursing home,
hospital, managed care, public health agency, or
other organization during the senior year.
Advanced standing in Marywood University's Graduate
Department of Nursing and Public Administration is
available to qualified majors. A Gerontology
major is also available. Please see the
Graduate Catalog for a 5-Year Degree option.

Administration (Dr. Alice McDonnell,
