Master of Health Administration

Internal Case Competition, Class of 2016

The culminating experience of the 1st year is the program’s internal case competition, usually conducted on the first Friday of May. Team presentations are judged by local healthcare executives.

Involvement in the Community

MHA students manage to have the time to get involved in community activities, often through SOURCE (Student Outside Research Center). The day after their case competition, members of the Class of 2016 joined others within the Schools of Public Health, Nursing and Medicine to help clean up a neighboring community.

MHA Seminars

For the past several years, the first and last MHA seminar has been conducted in the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine Board Room with the President of the Johns Hopkins Health System, Ron Peterson. Pictured with Mr. Peterson is the Class of 2017.

GBMC Alumni

MHA students visit Greater Baltimore Medical Center each year to learn about its residency opportunity and to tour its campus. Included in this photo are seven MHA alumni working at GBMC, four of whom completed their residencies at GBMC with preceptor John Ellis who is “central” to this photo.

Competitive Spirit

Members of the Class of 2017 formed an intramural soccer team in an effort to get some exercise and blow off some steam together. Ford’s Fury may not always score the most points, but worked hard and had fun. The team found the soccer season to be more competitive than the residency match process: the residency match has 26 wins and no losses!
