Message from the Director - Master of Health Administration
Welcome to the Health Administration programs! We offer a variety of programs intended to equip leaders to guide the health care system into the future! Recognizing that health care is a very important issue in this country and in the world, our courses are designed to provide the knowledge and skills necessary to prepare leaders to address the issues of access, quality and cost of health care services that currently face this nation. Our instructors are experienced health care professionals.
Our courses are offered in a variety of formats to meet your needs. Our goal is to engage you in the course, with other students and with your instructor, yet you are able to work at your own pace. The basic format of our courses is 15 weeks, but you may accelerate your course to as little as five weeks, depending on how much time you have to devote to studying. We do not require you to be in the classroom (online) at any specific times or with any specific frequency. We also offer hybrid courses that include a combination of online and on campus work, as well as an annual symposium of health care experts addressing the most compelling health care issues.
We offer undergraduate programs in health administration, long-term care administration, and radiologic science administration. We also offer a masters degree in health administration. Each of these programs may be tailored to meet your specific interests or needs.

What the faculty are saying...
"I have been teaching for Saint Joseph's College of Maine in their distant education program since 1990. The one thing that has impressed me the most is the quality of the professor/instructor they employ. We are not just education majors, but rather we are all professionals in our particular area of study with many years of experience in the field. Consequently, attending Saint Joseph's, unlike many other online institutions, means you are getting an education, not just a degree."
"I must confess that the students are as terrific as the faculty, not only knowledgeable in their areas of health care, but insightful in their thoughts and practical in their applications!"

"I recommend our program at SJCME because I know from experience that it is the best around, as I am a proud Alumna of both the Bachelor and Master's Programs and have been teaching in our program for the past eight years. I know how hard it is to earn a degree while working, and I also know how caring our College is about our students. Our instructors are considered experts in their field, having worked for many years in the area of health administration that they teach and they share their life experiences with our students. There is no better way to get an education!"
