Bachelor of Science in Health Administration/Health Information Systems Version 002

Program Description

The BSHA Program is designed to integrate a foundation of general education and applied sciences with the expertise that prepares the graduate for professional careers in a variety of health care or related health settings.

The BSHA curriculum addresses the basic body of knowledge, understanding, and skills identified as relevant to health care services such as management, finance and accounting, legal and ethical parameters, health and disease factors, and human and information resources. In addition, the health information major provides the student with initial educational preparation to gain insight into the current and emerging world of health information systems. The reshaping of information and technology in health care requires workers to have a broad range of knowledge associated with the functions of an increasingly automated health care environment.

This 60-credit major fulfills only part of the 120-minimum credit requirement (124 for Kansas students) for degree completion.
