We are the first college of population health established in the United States with an unwavering focus on improving population health in the United States and around the world. We train leaders with the knowledge and skills necessary to transform the delivery of health services by working within and across critical stakeholder groups including: healthcare providers and delivery systems; health insurance companies and third-party payers; drug and device manufactures; technology companies; management consulting firms; and community organizations.
We offer graduate programs in all key areas of population health improvement: applied health economics and outcomes research, health data science, healthcare quality and safety, operational excellence, population health science, public health, healthcare administration, health research methods, and artificial intelligence (AI) in health analytics leadership.
