DESCRIPTION OF PROGRAM AND DEPARTMENT:

• Hofstra's Master of Health Administration (MHA) is a large and dynamic program that draws both early and mid-career students from across the health care continuum. The MHA is offered both as an asynchronous online program and an on-campus CAHME accredited program. Academic based faculty as well as health care executives provide expertise and resources to the program offering students a rich theoretical and applied foundation in health care administration.
• The Department of Population Health is a dynamic community with over 700 students, 350 undergraduate students in Community Health and Health Science, and another 400 graduate students in our three graduate programs: Master of Public Health, Master of Health Administration, and Master of Science in Health Informatics. The Department of Population Health resides in the School of Health Sciences, along with three other departments: Allied Health and Kinesiology; Counseling and Mental Health Professions and Speech, Language, Hearing Sciences. Thus, there are many exciting opportunities for inter-professional collaboration.
• The community in which we are located enhances our programs. Nassau County is one of the country's first suburbs and one of the most culturally, ethnically, and racially diverse communities in the nation.
