Healthcare Innovation Management

About

Learn to build, lead and manage next-generation healthcare systems with the Graduate Certificate in Healthcare Innovation Management in the Fox School of Business at Temple University. This 12-credit graduate certificate is designed for current professionals seeking to focus on innovative, nontraditional approaches to healthcare delivery. Hybrid course formats provide the best of both online and in-person learning experiences.

The U.S. healthcare system is undergoing dramatic changes as a result of market forces, consumer expectations, provider reimbursement and technology that drive innovations in delivery, financing, payment and organizational structure. The Graduate Certificate in Healthcare Innovation Management provides students with a customized path to understanding and adapting to these evolving changes in the healthcare system.

The credits earned as part of this certificate may also be transferred into graduate degree programs, such as the Master of Health Administration or the Master of Science in Innovation Management and Entrepreneurship.

The Graduate Certificate in Healthcare Innovation Management is a joint effort between the Department of Risk, Actuarial Science, and Legal Studies and the Department of Management within the Fox School of Business.
