Course Information

The B.S. in Health Management is offered through the College for Public Health and Social Justice, which is accredited by the Council on Education for Public Health. Health management is a major for students interested in business, health care, and health and wellness in communities. 

Health care delivery is highly complex, and there is a need for trained individuals who can work toward recommending, implementing, operating and evaluating changes to the system. Decisions made by health care executives help improve the lives of millions of people every day. 

A degree in health management from Saint Louis University educates students about the business side of public health and health care, built upon a foundation in Jesuit-based liberal arts, business and public policy. 

  • Health systems knowledge. SLU's health management degree provides unique insight into the evolving priorities of the health industry, from individualized treatment to integrated preventative care.
  • Health care impact. Health management majors gain knowledge and skills vital to understanding the role of the health care system in implementing policies and processes that impact the complex challenges facing the health of communities.
  • Employment outlook. A health management degree empowers students to pursue multiple career options and graduate degree paths, each of which can open doors to executive-level careers.
  • Pre-medical students. Pre-med students benefit greatly from a health management major, as they gain a strong understanding of the organizational systems in which they work.
