Our Master of Science in Biomedicine and Master of Arts in Health Care Healthcare Management (HCM) dual degree program uniquely challenges students to take courses broadly from several disciplines. Not only will you take courses to prepare you for a fast-paced and ever-evolving health care healthcare landscape, but you will also be introduced to concepts around infectious diseases, bioethics, and health care healthcare management in a cross-cultural setting.
