IHL Fellowships

IHL has developed a fellowship program for graduate students at the Mailman School of Public Health who have a demonstrated interest in healthcare management and policy in China. The first fellowship was awarded to a Mailman Executive Master of Public Health (EMPH) student in 2006, two additional fellowships were awarded in January 2008, and our most recent was awarded in January 2010. Fellowship students are working to facilitate curriculum development for the proposed summer program.

In addition, the Mailman School of Public Health, with support from IHL, hosted its first Chinese doctoral candidate from Renmin in the summer of 2008. This PhD student will perform research to validate the educational needs of Chinese healthcare executives.

IHL Five-Week Certificate Program

Curriculum development is underway for a five-week summer Healthcare Leadership program, to commence Summer 2011. Joint faculty meetings with Mailman School of Public Health, Columbia University and Renmin University in Beijing have identified four key areas as priorities:

  1. Hospital Management
  2. Care Management and Disease Prevention
  3. Establishing and Evaluating Primary Health Services
  4. The Development and Validation of Evidence-Based Policy

Renmin University and Columbia University have agreed to co-develop case studies with IHL that will specifically address these four areas, and to provide Chinese data so that they reflect accurately China’s current healthcare management and policy problems.

Participants in this program will earn a Certificate from the Mailman School of Public Health at Columbia University in International Healthcare Leadership.
