Health Administration
Linfield’s Health Administration minor is an ideal minor for those students who want a deeper and more current understanding of the basic and pervasive changes that are transforming health and reforming health systems in the US and globally. Pre-med, nursing, business, psychology, information sciences, and other health sciences students increasingly need and benefit from a broader and deeper understanding of how public health and health systems work, as well as which directions they are headed. Affordable Care Act is changing the focus, the financial incentives, and the required core competencies and skills necessary to lead and manage people and projects, and improve quality outcomes. The Health Administration minor responds to these 21st Century challenges with a curriculum and set of experiences that are now critical for key health care staff and management.
