Introduction

If you are looking to advance your management career in the health or social care sector, then the MBA in Health & Social Care will enable you to advance into management roles from an existing position, or prepare you to enter a new role at a management level.

The MBA in Health & Social Care is one of the specialisations in our international MBA programme offered at Wittenborg University Apeldoorn to full-time and part time students from the Netherlands and around the world.

An international team of lecturers and business leaders has been designed this MBA for those ready to make the climb into management roles, either from an existing job or graduates with some work experience who are aspiring to become managers. Together with the traditional MBA building blocks, this MBA in Health & Social Care offers additional modules with a particular focus on leadership and management roles in the healthcare sector, and issues specifically facing care organisations, nationally, and internationally.

The programme is designed for both health and care workers who are aiming to enter managerial roles, as well as students from other sectors interested in the sector.

Throughout the Wittenborg MBA, we take a strategic perspective on business and management, in this specialisation specifically from within the health care industry, always from an international viewpoint, and help you to develop the skills to contribute to major decisions made by your current or future organisations that will help shape their future.

  • Extend your interest in financial decision making;
  • Develop a strategic perspective on business;

Course structure

The Wittenborg MBA is delivered in a block format, with 2 modules being covered every 6 weeks. The classes are inter-disciplinary - you study shared modules in semester 1 with MBA students from different business specialisations. Due to the rolling entry (6 times a year) groups are dynamic, extremely international and diverse.

The modules are delivered intensively over consecutive days in the so-called 'block format', which means that each module has 6 days of teaching split into two blocks of 3 days. Teaching methods include group work, case studies, presentations, and live projects. The course is delivered through a variety of approaches including lectures, presentations, tutorials and case studies, with an emphasis on interactive learning. Each module is taught by two lecturers, often a full time Wittenborg lecturer and a quest lecturer from a partner university. Modules include regular guest speakers from industry.

Areas of study

  • Management subjects address key issues of strategy, marketing, operations, human resources, accounting and financial planning, studied in parallel with deeper health care management and leadership modules. Options include consultancy and multi-unit management. Students acquire research skills, which they can apply to academic or industrial projects.
