Management in Health Professions
Management in Health Professions
The healthcare sector is undergoing significant change: rising demand for care, digitalisation, new quality requirements and a growing shortage of skilled staff are shaping everyday life. There is a need for leaders who can combine practical nursing experience with management skills. The part-time Bachelor’s degree in Management in the Healthcare Professions is aimed at registered nurses who wish to expand their expertise and take on responsibilities in leadership, organisation and quality management – even without a school-leaving certificate.
During the programme, you will acquire a grounding in business administration, knowledge of people management, process and project management, as well as legal and organisational skills. You will learn to design efficient workflows, deploy resources effectively and guide teams confidently through complex challenges. In addition, you will strengthen your skills in quality and risk management and improve your ability to collaborate across disciplines.
Upon graduation, you will be eligible for demanding leadership roles – ranging from ward and nursing service management to positions in process, interface or quality management. In this way, you will play an active part in shaping the future of modern, patient-centred care.
