Experiential learning
You’ll practice by doing, not just reading and viewing. You’ll practice –and get feedback—throughout the entire course, not just at the endpoint. You’ll analyze examples, interact with experts, do hands-on projects, and more. And each course starts with a case study drawn from Mayo Clinic.
Choose your own pace
Built specifically for working professionals, you can complete the degree in as few as 12 months or adjust the schedule to meet your needs.
Courses are 7.5 weeks long to allow you to deep dive into each topic. Stack courses or take them one at a time – you get to choose your own pace.
Connect with faculty and executives
You’ll interact personally with faculty and healthcare executives through optional faculty connect sessions, faculty office hours, industry roundtables, and Mayo spotlights.
Specialized support
You’ll benefit from the support of a dedicated Online MS in Management success manager to help you through the program and connect you with Northeastern events and resources, including full access to Northeastern’s career support services.
