  • Health information technology
  • Conflicts of interest

Full- and part-time programs are available with classes taught at our Harbor East campus in Baltimore and our Dupont Circle campus in Washington, D.C.
Please note that full-time programs at the Carey Business School are ideal for students with minimal work experience, while our part-time programs are intended for students with two or more years of professional experience. International applicants should apply to our full-time MBA or MS degree programs.

"The health care industry in the U.S. is the fastest growing industry, we are talking anything from pharmaceuticals to hospital management.
