BBA in Health Care Administration
Does the healthcare industry intrigue you? Did you know there is a business side of health care? This industry is ever-changing with real business problems that need someone like you to solve.
TWU's BBA in Health Care Administration will teach you the fundamentals and skills needed to expand and leverage yourself in the health care market, whether you are a business, pre-nursing, or allied health student. TWU offers two tracks—General and Clinical—that will prepare you for opportunities within the vast and evolving business side of health care.
The Clinical Track provides a health care degree pathway if you started college in another health-related major and want to work in the industry. This track is designed to accept most—if not all—of your completed courses, including science courses. (individual results may vary.)
The General Track provides a broad overview of business concepts as applied in the health care industry if you started college with a non-health related major. This track is flexible, allowing more transferrable course opportunities.
Classes are offered on our Denton campus - face-to-face, online and hybrid.
