MBA for Healthcare Backgrounds

Beyond Healthcare With a Solid Business Foundation

The Georgia Tech Scheller College of Business empowers those with healthcare backgrounds to elevate their careers through our MBA programs. Whether you aim to advance within the healthcare sector or pivot to a new career path, our programs offer the support to help you achieve your goals.

Students with non-business backgrounds are often intimidated at the thought of returning to get their MBA. At Scheller, pursuing an MBA is not a solitary venture. Community is among the most valuable things we can offer our students before, during, and after the program.

Join a community of like-minded professionals and take the next step in your journey towards becoming a transformative leader wherever your healthcare background takes you next.

“One of the biggest challenges I faced was managing imposter syndrome. Studying economics, data analysis, and finance—all subjects outside my medical background—seemed daunting at first, but I quickly remembered that overcoming academic challenges wasn’t new to me. My previous experience had taught me to work hard, be resilient, and adapt to high-pressure environments. Skills I already possessed helped me excel in the MBA program.”
