PROGRAM SNAPSHOT HEALTHCARE ADMINISTRATION Program Description: As a health and wellness coach, you will guide individuals during their transformative journey of achieving lasting changes and enhanced well-being by helping them overcome hurdles, surpass limitations and tap into their own unrealized personal and professional potential. Highlights: Sharon Frazier (MSHCA 700 instructor) gets students off to a solid start in the graduate program. She has been commended for her responsiveness & attentiveness to student needs; while setting both reasonable, but high expectations for graduate student academic performance and engagement in both the course and program. Sharon also continually seeks ways to improve the student experience, and coursework connections with the rest of program curriculum. Graduate students often select UWSP for a variety of reasons: a) were undergraduate alumni; b) children/relatives where UWSP alumni; c) centralized location and close to home compared to other potential “home campus’ locations for shared program”; and d) appreciate and desire fully online course offerings for degree completion. Collaborative campus partners (the academic program directors) are a solid and cohesive unit focused on developing, delivering, evaluating and modifying high quality curriculum focused on the unique needs associated with rural communities for providing high quality care to individuals, families and groups living there.
