HCA 410: CAPSTONE HLTH CARE ADMINISTRATION

In this course, students will employ a case study approach to a common management issue in healthcare administration. Using the concepts and methodologies studied throughout the program, they will, in a series of papers and presentations, examine the facets of the issue they have chosen, project the consequences of various administrative approaches, and reflect on their personal ethical perspectives regarding managerial alternatives. Each student is expected to integrate knowledge and skills gained from previous courses in the program by formulating a variety of strategies to manage a challenge they will encounter in the healthcare environment. Students will also assess the impact of their educational experiences on their ethical perspectives and critical thinking skills through a process of self assessment.
