(MHA)
Text on screen: Daniel Mueller, Visiting Assistant Professor
[An interview shot of Daniel Mueller fades into a montage of photos with students.]
Daniel Mueller: We exist to educate working professionals to be future health care leaders, to serve
in managerial leadership roles in our health care system.
Text on screen: Douglas Whitman, Assistant Professor
Douglas Whitman: A business school class is going to teach great detail about running the financial
side of a business…
[Another, longer montage of photos of students in health care and administration.
Footage switches between shots of Whitman and other photo montages.]
But we need to be able to understand how those apply in health care. For example,
Medicare, Medicaid. Those represent a substantial portion of the income to any health
care organization, a doctor's office or a hospital, and those are not taught in a
standard business school finance class. They are taught in a health care finance class, in our MHA program.
Text on screen: A diverse network of PRACTITIONER FACULTY
Mueller: Our faculty are really well prepared. They bring out real world examples in the classroom,
especially in our structured activities and case studies.
Whitman: The examples, the case studies that are used would be from the health care industry.
Mueller: That's correct. All the subject matter that we teach in our course — health, policy,
law — is focused on issues specifically designed by health administrative individuals,
taught by our practitioners.
Text on screen: An innovative program: LIVE VIRTUAL FORMAT
Whitman: The Webster MHA can be done in the live virtual format in as little as 16 months.

Text on screen: LIVE VIRTUAL FORMAT
If a student wants to take a full-time program, they will take two classes at a time
and they can complete the entire program in 16 months. If a student would like to
take it on a part-time basis and take one class at a time, then it would take about
33 months for them to finish.
We want to be able to provide the tools that people will need as they become directors,
department leaders and C-suite level executives in an organization.
Text on screen: A diverse and global ALUMNI NETWORK
Webster University is over 100 years old. The MBA program is over 45 years old. There
are people that graduated from this program 45 years ago, 40 years ago, 30 years ago,
20 years ago that have already advanced into their careers to the highest levels.
The alumni network is incredibly valuable. We are experienced. We have a long-practiced
system of teaching health care leadership to students.
