MBA Health and Social Care

Anglia Ruskin University

The MBA Health and Social Care combines strategic management with contemporary issues facing health and social care organisations. It is aimed at professionals who want leadership and entrepreneurial skills for a sector that supports physical and mental health across the population. Full-time and part-time options are listed with weekday, weekend and evening patterns at East India in London. If your goal is population-level public health rather than organisational leadership, compare the Master of Public Health course. Weekend and evening options on the same award help managers who cannot release weekday hours every week. AF Education supports England-resident UK home students with free application help and Postgraduate Master’s Loan checks from Student Finance England.
