HPA 580 - Integrative Experience


This course provides a 100-hour field placement that provides students with opportunities to gain practical health management experience in the health services field. Field placements strive to integrate real-world experience in administration and management of health services by enhancing health administrative skills under the direction, mentorship or supervision of a knowledgeable preceptor in an environment that promotes learning. Students will complete aspects of the health management integrative experience on site in individual practicum placement settings. In addition to the field placement and under supervision of a faculty member, students will maintain and submit weekly logs of their activity and attend three synchronous sessions that will allow reflection, synthesis, and professional development based upon the individual experiences of students.
