Health Care Management
Middle Tennessee is informally referred to as the "health care capital of the country." More than 140 health care-related enterprises are headquartered in and around Nashville. Collectively, these businesses reach across the nation to provide a level of health care within our country that is envied around the globe.
As health care grows in scope, new technologies, advances in basic research, and new concepts in health care financing and delivery serve to make this an even more complex industry. It's easy to see why more and more health-related companies are looking for well-trained employees to manage and supervise the services they offer. To help meet this increasing need for qualified managers in health care, the Undergraduate School of Business at Belmont University offers a Bachelor of Business Administration (B.B.A.) with an emphasis in health care management.
As a student in this program, you will receive an excellent education on three fronts. Belmont strives to bring together the best of both liberal arts and professional education. First, courses in the humanities will help you develop lifelong competencies in critical thinking, problem solving, communication and other similar skill areas. Second, you will receive a solid foundation in the basic business disciplines that will serve you well, no matter what path your career takes. Third, you will take specialized courses related to the management of health care that will prepare you to land your first professional position and to experience regular career growth within the industry.
Hospitality, Travel and Tourism
The Hospitality, Travel, and Tourism program will help you gain exposure to this dynamic industry. Our courses in Hospitality, Travel, and Tourism provide a balance of theory and practice with a focus on real-world case studies and projects. Students are encouraged to participate in an internship while completing the program. Careers in this exciting field include hotel management, cruise line management, restaurant management, tourism management and resort management.
