Master of Public Health

[KN]

Привет всем! Есть ли здесь те, кто учится на Master of Publin Health или Medical Administration? Слышала что обучение занимает 2 года. Хотелось бы спросить, какие перспективы и вообще. Если вдруг не получится сдать степы... :roll: Спасибо

In fact any Master's Degree programs takes about 2 years. You can finish in under 2 years if you have very intense schedule and don't take summer vacations.
In my opinion (as a student-not Med.Administration though) it is a good choice since our population ages and the need in hospital care/long term care should not be decreasing in the near future. Also with the current tendency for the computerization of the healthcare, knowledge of the information technologies would be a plus.

Talked with somebody with a Master's of Health Administration degree yesterday remembering your question. She confirmed my thought about the jobs being abound all over the place. She personally just was not intersted as it turned out in being a hospital administrator and decided to go back to school to work on PhD.
One of my relatives is an administrator in a large hospital. He is doing rather well-financially. Very busy work. Have little to do with medicine though.
