The Health Systems Management 30th Anniversary Campaign: Supporting the Next Generation of Health Care Leaders

Health Systems Management: Celebrating 30 Years of Outstanding Innovation

Since 1979, the Department of Health Systems Management has been preparing future health care leaders with its innovative practitioner-teacher model, where learning is facilitated by real-world executives and health care leaders.

Now, as Health Systems Management celebrates its 30th anniversary, the program also looks ahead to its future with the launch of a campaign to support the next generation of health care leaders.

At a time when applications are up but competition for the top students is stronger than ever, the Health Systems Management program aims to establish a $500,000 endowment — more than doubling the scholarship dollars available for student recruitment.  

Gifts to the Health Systems Management 30th Anniversary Campaign will enable us to accomplish the following:

• Enhance our ability to compete with top programs by expanding our portfolio of scholarship awards
• Take financial concerns out of the equation for the finest students
• Improve our outreach to talented young people who, through our efforts, will learn that health care leadership is a rewarding and fulfilling career

The campaign was announced at the Health Systems Management 30th Anniversary Celebration in August and will continue into 2010.

It is co-chaired by Andrew Garman, associate professor and associate chair, and Mary Malone, 1985 HSM alumna (pictured at right).
