MBA
Consider pursuing a Master of Business Administration while you’re enrolled at UMass Chan. Our dual-degree MBA program, developed in conjunction with UMass Lowell, allows students in the T.H. Chan School of Medicine, the Morningside Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences and the Tan Chingfen Graduate School of Nursing to complete an MBA while earning a degree at UMass Chan. UMass Lowell’s Manning School of Business offers MBA tracks in finance, managerial leadership, information technology and health care, taught by faculty like Denise Dunlap, PhD, an award-winning expert in entrepreneurship and innovation.
Dr. Dunlap’s research examines the importance of developing incremental and breakthrough innovations in the global pharmaceutical industry and the different types of professional guilds that exist among scientists and pharmaceutical industry managers. In 2019 when the UMass Chan-UMass Lowell dual-degree MBA program began, Dr. Dunlap and David Gilchrist, MD, MBA, an assistant professor of family medicine and community health, shared their thoughts about the value of an MBA for practicing health care providers and scientists.
