COLLEGE NOTES
Muhlenberg College
Medical leadership program offered
The Muhlenberg College School of Graduate Studies will open a Master’s in Medical Leadership graduate program - in the 2023-24 academic year.
Muhlenberg College developed this program in consultation with leading healthcare executives for physicians and clinicians in emerging executive and administrative roles. The MML is designed to help healthcare professionals develop their careers and identities as leaders and prepare them to succeed in current or future executive positions that drive system-wide change in complex healthcare organizations.
MML courses will use a low-residency learning model combining online learning with face-to-face meetings and self-study. This proven model offers a high-quality, high-impact and personalized academic experience while providing the flexibility required for working professionals.
The MML requires 10 courses and can be completed full or part-time in less than two years. A graduate certificate in Medical Leadership requiring five courses will also be offered for those students interested in the program but unable to commit to the full degree requirements due to professional constraints. While a graduate certificate does not take the place of a master’s degree, it accommodates the demanding obligations of medical and clinical leaders, providing essential knowledge and skills more quickly with a future path toward completing the master’s degree.
Program recruitment and enrollment will begin in the spring semester of 2023. For more information, please visit www.muhlenberg.edu/MML or contact the School of Graduate Studies at 484-664-3300 or graduatestudies@muhlenberg.edu.
Muhlenberg College is located at 2400 Chew St., Allentown, 18104. For information, call 484-664-4343 or visit wwMuhlenberg.edu or on Twitter at @MuhlenbergNews
