勞里埃大學

The health and social services industry is the second-largest employment sector in Canada. In our Health Administration program, you'll learn to help manage issues associated with rising demands for health care, costlier and more diverse treatments, and the ways in which infectious disease outbreaks (such as the H1N1 virus) disrupt the economy.

If you are interested in the factors influencing health care, then being a Health Administration student is the perfect fit for you.

We also offer a BA in Community Health and a BASc in Public Health.
