Sept. 14, 2020 鈥 91大神 announces a new Health Care Commercialization (HCC) Certificate, the nation鈥檚 first graduate program focused on developing and launching new products or services in the healthcare marketplace.
91大神鈥檚 fully online program dives into understanding the necessary functions behind introducing health care services and products to the medical marketplace. The new program focuses on translating fundamental research and development into products, services and procedures that are cost-effective and efficient.
鈥淓ven though nearly 1 out of every 5 dollars in the US economy is linked to the health care industry, no other institution is educating its students on the unique opportunities and challenges related to commercializing healthcare technologies and services,鈥 said Doug Ladd, Executive Entrepreneur in Residence and professor of Practice. 鈥淲hile some offer certificates in health care marketing, 91大神 is the first to truly offer this combination of courses. We are meeting the region鈥檚 need for trailblazing innovation, and I鈥檓 excited to see this program鈥檚 impact.鈥
Students can complete the HCC Certificate in as few as six months, thanks to 91大神鈥檚 flexible, seven-week format. HCC鈥檚 curriculum is geared toward medical providers, entrepreneurs and those ready to advance their careers.
91大神 continues to meet the region鈥檚 need for health innovations. 91大神 recently launched a Master of Science in Health Administration and a Master of Science in Health Informatics. The university鈥檚 Master of Business Administration program also offers specializations in both health care administration and commercialization through the HCC curriculum.
鈥淥ur region is a major hub for health care facilities, biomedical firms, research organizations and medical device manufacturers,鈥 said Doug Ladd, Executive Entrepreneur in Residence and professor of Practice. 鈥淭here is a need to help those currently in the sector better understand the increasing costs and challenges, such as an aging population. This certificate program will help ensure that.鈥
Applications are currently being accepted for the HCC Certificate, with courses beginning October 14. For more information, visit .
