Developed by an advisory board of health care leaders, researchers, and entrepreneurs, the program focuses on the factors influencing today’s health care: technology, research, and innovation. Classes can be taken online, in the classroom, or in a hybrid format. However, many of the courses within the Complex Health Systems concentration will take place on NSU’s Fort Lauderdale/Davie Campus at its many clinics, the HCA hospital, or at NSU’s Center for Collaborative Research. Taught by practitioners and delivered in an experiential learning environment, this new concentration promises to give students a competitive advantage in their chosen field.
