NSHM offers Master of Hospital Administration (MHA) programme that is equivalent to an MBA in Healthcare. With NABH and other quality drives in hospitals and healthcare delivery organizations, there is now a growing demand to employ MHA (Master of Hospital Administration) qualified people. NSHM is considered among the top institutes in India for studying MHA. We aim at inculcating knowledge, skills and abilities for students that are essential for managing corporate hospitals.

There is scope beyond hospitals as well. For example, getting employed as healthcare programme coordinators and resource persons in International NGOs (UNICEF, WHO, etc.), NGOs and GOs. The character of the programme is experiential learning, with 90 hours of training per semester. The students usually get placed prior to or during the final semester. With a steady 15% annual growth rate in the healthcare industry over the last decade, there are several job opportunities after MHA in India. This is also an avenue for dental graduates and students from other Allied Healthcare streams to explore. More and more medical students are opting for MHA to enhance their career prospects -by earning knowledge in managerial aspects of running hospitals/healthcare units.
