In
addition to the above courses, certain sections of the
following offerings may also satisfy HIM major requirements
for a function-specific course subject to approval by
the HIM Program Director. The following courses will generally
satisfy the HIMT major requirements if taught by a Health
Industry Management faculty member. |

**
Both International Healthcare Systems and Introduction
to the Principles and Management of Health Industry
Systems are one credit courses, however, students can
apply only one of these two courses to fulfill the Health
Industry Management major requirement.
In addition to these distribution requirements,
students must attain the approval of
the HIM Program Director. This approval is necessary
since Program faculty want to assure students that they
receive the optimal breadth and depth of training in
this concentration, consistent with the individual’s
background and career path.
