Business of Healthcare Minor

Enhance Your Degree with Expertise in the Business of Healthcare

St. Thomas undergrad students with any major can pursue a minor in the Business of Healthcare. Healthcare is big business in the United States, with many jobs both in the for-profit and non-profit sectors (including Catholic health care organizations). Many health care providers will eventually participate in the “business-side” of health care. This interdisciplinary minor is meant to provide students who may want to seek a career in health care with a basic understanding of the health care industry and the business of health care.
