What the programme is

Health business management sits between clinical work and administration — service management, quality, procurement and the running of health organisations rather than direct patient care. It suits nurses, allied health graduates and health-science graduates who want to move into management.

This programme is newer in our catalogue than the others on this site, and some of its details are still being confirmed with Metropolia. Everything marked estimated or "confirmed per intake" above is exactly that — we would rather say so than publish a number that turns out to be wrong.

Bring your family

Your spouse and child can travel with you at the same time, on a one-year extendable visa. You will need to show funds for each of them — the amounts are on this page.
