Your Bachelor's degree is only the beginning if you want to make a career as a manager later on. For many companies, a solid foundation of specialised knowledge is only sufficient for certain professions. A highly qualified and internationally recognised Master's degree is particularly worthwhile for you if you want to take on responsible tasks at a higher management level later on or even sit in the executive chair. However, the additional effort required for a Master's degree is not only worthwhile in terms of your career prospects. You can also specialise, deepen your knowledge and gain valuable experience and contacts abroad. Your future employers will reward all of this with praise in the application process, managerial positions and a starting salary that is up to 20 percent higher.     

In addition to subject-specific knowledge, the Master's degree in Healthcare Management at IU International University of Applied Sciences will equip you with important leadership and personnel skills. You’ll be able to further deepen your knowledge of business administration and health sciences already acquired in your Bachelor's degree and take it to a new level, be it in the field of healthcare management, health psychology and sociology or medical and nursing law. In addition, you’ll be able to specialise in a selected subject area such as human resources, public health or controlling. 

The health and healthcare industries are booming. And you will be booming along with it. As a graduate with a Master's degree in Healthcare Management, you will be able to actively shape the health of our society. As an administrative manager, you’ll plan, control and monitor all business procedures and service processes of healthcare facilities of municipalities, states or private providers. As a company health manager, you’ll create healthy working conditions for all employees in your company and ensure that your employer remains economically healthy. As a healthcare consultant, you’ll be responsible for discussions with contractual partners and for the development of solutions to current issues.
