Health Sciences - Health Information Management to Health Administration

Saint Louis University's accelerated Bachelor of Science in Health Science with a Health Information Management Concentration to Master of Health Administration (M.H.A.) is designed for students who demonstrate academic success in health information management and related coursework.

Saint Louis University's Health Information Management Program blends the study of medical sciences, information technology, legal concepts and health care management. 

Students in SLU's Health Information Management Program learn the nuances of health care delivery, health care data, health information technology, and medical-legal aspects of health care. This knowledge establishes a strong foundation for students interested in pursuing a Master of Health Administration.

Students apply to the accelerated program during their junior year, and accepted students begin graduate coursework during their senior year. Students retain undergraduate status, financial aid and tuition rates until their undergraduate degree is conferred after year four. At that time, students attain official graduate student status, pay graduate tuition and become eligible for graduate assistantships.
