Our Curriculum

Inspired by increasing challenges faced by the hospital industries, our curriculum has been redesigned to accommodate several premises. First, current or future hospital managers ought to have a strong focus toward patient safety, applied in all management practices. Second, quality improvement efforts need to be practiced continuously from the level of patients or community, microsystem (service level), macrosystem (organization level) and environment. This chain of improvement is articulated by Berwick (2002). Finally, educating managers should go beyond teaching managerial functions with conventional learning methods. Its curriculum, learning methods, and student assessment all drives the suitable process for managers to learn. For this purpose, our new curriculum adopted Mintzberg’s principles (2004) in stepwise manner. The new curriculum consists of six learning blocks:

Prior to these learning blocks, students are also required to take pre-courses, introductory and compulsory courses as required by the Graduate Program in Public Health as described below.

Pre-courses for hospital management

Future hospital managers (such as fresh-graduates, those who work in health institutions other than hospitals) are compulsory to participate in this two-week course. Under a normal circumstances, this course is offered prior to the official starting of the master course. Official letter of acceptance from the Graduate Program in Public Health are not necessarily required in order to enrol in this course. Those who intend to take the selected test afterwards may wish to do so.
