The University of Evansville offers three degrees in Health Services Administration (HSA) to meet the rising challenges of the health care industry: a bachelor’s degree (BS), a five year combined bachelor’s/master’s degree (BS/MS), and a two-year evening master's degree (MS) for working adults in the community. Incoming traditional students have the choice to obtain a four-year traditional degree or extend one additional year and achieve both the bachelor's and master's degrees.

Health Care Administrators are employed by a wide variety of organizations including hospitals, managed care companies, outpatient care facilities, pharmaceutical companies, mental health organizations, public health agencies and any organization that has a stake in health care today. The need for Health services administrators is projected to increase faster than the average of all occupations through the next 5-10 years.

The many changes in health care resulting from changes in government administration, new advancements in technology, and ever changing populations have created a need for managers who can deal with a multitude of challenges specific to the health care industry. Health care administrators need to understand business concepts as well as health related aspects of the delivery.
