University of Baltimore B.S. in Health Management Program Update

by

The University of Baltimore has discontinued new student enrollments for its B.S. in Health Management program within the School of Health and Human Services, shifting institutional focus while current participants navigate their remaining coursework through a formal teach-out process.

For students seeking a related pathway, the institution suggests exploring the B.A. in Human Services Administration.

The archived academic program previously prepared students to enter or advance administration and management careers in hospitals, health care facilities, medical group practices, insurance organizations, pharmaceutical companies, federal and state government agencies, and home health care and long-term care programs. Alumni frequently secured positions like clinic administrator, health care consultant, medical services manager, health information manager, health care manager, medical records specialist, medical office manager, and chief nursing officer.

Several students achieved notable milestones prior to the program status update. Avneet Kaur, a student in the program at The Universities at Shady Grove, won the 2020-2021 USG Academic Achievement Award and later graduated from the M.S. in Health Administration program.

The 2022 Doug Shepherd Memorial Scholarship was presented to Danielle Fenton by the Maryland Association of Healthcare Executives, which serves as the Maryland chapter of the American College of Healthcare Executives. Jemia Bell-Sandy became the first person in her family to graduate from college when she received her degree in December 2023. Vivian Dorsey, who started a healthcare career before pursuing a college degree, graduated at age 66 during the spring 2024 commencement ceremonies.

“I just hit the ground running because I knew what I could do,” Vivian Dorsey said.

“You have to do what makes you happy. You can’t please everybody, but you finish what you start,” Dorsey said.
