Introduction
The ever-growing health care industry offers a wealth of career opportunities and steady employment in allied health, nursing, and health business and management. As the probability of health care reform becomes more of a certainty and baby boomers retire from the industry, the need for those providing patient care as well as supportive and management services will surely increase. Graduates of the program will be able to pursue positions including Hospital Services Supervisor, Medical Billing Specialist, or Project Manager for a health system.
