April 20, 2020

The Association of University Programs in Health Administration (AUPHA) is an organization of university-based educational programs, faculty, practitioners, and health care provider organizations working to improve the delivery of health services through the education of health care administrators.

AUPHA recently released a video explaining the important role health administration plays in the delivery of healthcare. Health Administration is one of the top 10 fastest growing and paying jobs in the healthcare industry, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. The COVID-19 pandemic has shone a light on the important role health administration plays in access to healthcare and the supply management, infrastructure, and technology needs of healthcare institutions. The need for passionate and committed health administration leadership has never been more evident.

The Bloustein School has an undergraduate major and two master’s tracks for those interested in health administration. For more information, visit
