How can we optimize the respective involvement of state and private players in healthcare? How best to guarantee universal access to a fair package of health services? And how to maintain quality while containing costs? The key to all these issues is the need for innovation. Gaining new knowledge, applying existing knowledge in a new way, developing new tasks and activities - this program brings together both theory and practice in its focus on innovation. And it does it on all possible levels, from micro -to macro-level, from individual organisations to national and international healthcare systems, from patient relations to the process of caretaking. You learn how to analyse situations in which innovations are needed, come up with innovative solutions, implement and manage these solutions, and critically evaluate and improve them. The programme also emphasises the importance of practical and employability skills, and hands-on training in conducting your own research. This a one-year full-time or two-year part-time program taught in English.

Problem-Based Learning (PBL)

At Maastricht University you work in groups of a maximum of 12 students on practical projects that deal with a health-related theme in a multidisciplinary manner. You get factual knowledge, but you also learn how to collaborate, present or how to set up a research project. Practical and subject-oriented skills training are amply discussed. Together you look for solutions and formulate answers. Independently, but always under the supervision of a tutor.

Career paths

Manager
As managers, HPIM graduates use their knowledge of strategy, finances, quality management and logistics to help healthcare organisations across the globe to make sound decisions about the future course of the organisation. They work on many different organisational levels and in a wide range of sectors, also including the pharmaceutical industry and companies that produce medical devices.

Policy advisor
The HPIM graduates that work as policy advisors help organisations and governments chart out new health policies, or evaluate the effectivity of previous policy efforts. You could, for example, end up evaluating new healthcare innovations, or help write new healthcare policies.

Care purchaser
Graduates also find jobs as care purchasers at insurance companies. They use their knowledge of healthcare economics to help insurance companies provide their customers with affordable, high-quality care by mediating between the insurance companies and the care providers.

Researcher
In addition to obtaining all the preparation you need for a successful career in healthcare, the programme will also provide you with the knowledge and skills you need to become a researcher. Some HPIM graduates opt for an academic career and find work as a PhD candidate at a university, where they further specialise in a topic that has been discussed during the programme.
