Unique, Interactive Atmosphere

The APL program curriculum is composed of healthcare-concentrated coursework with classes taught by industry experts who prepare students to effectively lead in an ever-changing, dynamic healthcare environment. The in-residence classes provide a unique, interactive atmosphere where learners discuss relevant topics in healthcare, analyze case studies and synthesize concepts for real-world application as physician leaders. Learning alongside peers in a hybrid model of in-residence and online classes provides a rich, engaging experience that is unique to the APL program. 

The program was created over 23 years ago in response to the growing need for physician leaders who can navigate the complex and rapidly changing healthcare industry. The Alliance for Physician Leadership MBA program is designed to prepare physicians with the knowledge and skills necessary to effectively lead healthcare organizations, develop/implement strategic initiatives, and also lead diverse teams of healthcare professionals.
