Our Story
Join the next generation of global public health leaders!
The University of Haifa’s International Master’s Program in Health Systems Administration and Global Health Leadership is dedicated to providing students with a strong foundation from which to critically examine current global health challenges. The next generation of health care leaders will need to understand the multifaceted nature of society and how it relates to public health issues. They will also need to have sophisticated leadership skills to serve an ever more complex society, and to manage cross-cutting, multi-sectoral, top-down and bottom-up comprehensive programs, within and beyond the health services. In an increasingly integrated world marked by growing disparity, public health leaders will need to be aware of how global and national forces affect health within and between national borders.
The Global Health Leadership and Administration program nurtures high levels of sophistication, excellent communication skills, and a deep knowledge of public health and global health, as well as prepares future practitioners and researchers for leadership roles in settings across the globe.
The one-year program is taught in English over three consecutive semesters from October through September. Students have the option of completing a thesis at no additional cost, which may take an additional year of study either in Haifa or in their home country.
