About This Programme
Ghana's healthcare system is expanding rapidly, with new hospitals, clinics, and health insurance schemes creating growing demand for professionals who can manage healthcare delivery effectively. The BSc Health Services Management programme at KCoHAS prepares students to lead and manage healthcare institutions, from district hospitals and polyclinics to private health facilities and public health organisations. The curriculum covers healthcare administration, health economics, health policy and planning, quality assurance, health information systems, and human resource management. Students also study financial management, strategic planning, and health law, gaining a well-rounded skill set for leadership roles in the health sector. Practical attachments at healthcare facilities ensure graduates understand the operational realities of managing health services in Ghana. This programme is ideal for students who are passionate about healthcare but drawn to leadership, management, and systems-level impact rather than direct clinical practice.
