DHA Student Testimonials

 

The Doctorate in Health Administration program has allowed me to bring together over twenty five years of education and experience in healthcare management.  As a career practitioner in this field, this applied degree will allow me to continue to improve health systems in our country and combine the application of theory and practice in healthcare management innovation.

The DHA online program provided me a positive and unique opportunity to immediately apply new knowledge and skills to my health care role.  I was able to network with a diverse group of health care professionals residing in several states without leaving home or work.  Seminars and chat sessions drew upon the experiences of each student thereby augmenting the curriculum with a variety of real- life examples. This experience has allowed me to develop leadership skills that enhance my productivity and interactions with health care team members.

The Doctor of Health Administration Program at Central Michigan University was an excellent way to obtain a quality advanced degree while maintaining my work and family schedule. The faculty was supportive and available at times convenient for me. The faculty and guest lecturers at the seminars brought a wealth of knowledge and experience to the program.

I would recommend Central Michigan University's Doctoral of Health Administration program to any healthcare professional who has desires to make a difference in the future of this profession.  As a past President and CEO of healthcare systems who now is teaching at the college level, CMU's DHA program has been an excellent doctoral program for my second career ambitions.  I have been very impressed with the quality of the program's faculty, integration of courses and rigor of the curriculum of CMU's DHA program.

The DHA program offered the opportunity to achieve a personal goal of earning a doctorate degree, along with the ability to maintain a full time career.  The faculty is exceptional and committed to helping the student succeed, the CMU off-campus library services are outstanding, and support from CMU has made the program exceed all expectations.  These last two years have been life-changing in a way I never expected, and I would recommend the CMU Doctoral Program in Health Administration to any executive considering completion of their terminal degree.

I would highly recommend this program for leaders who want to augment their professional skills and drive their level of excellence in health care management to a new level.  It is clear to me that the DHA degree will set me apart from my peer group as a contemporary leader in the health care community and position me for greater personal and professional achievements in the future.
