Our Alumni

Consisting of more than 1,600 practicing administrators, Minnesota's Alumni Association/Foundation is the largest and most active group of its kind in the country. It is dedicated to the ongoing professional development of its members and quality program development for student members.

Graduates are employed in all facets of health services delivery. Approximately 30% are associated with multihospital systems, 29% with community hospitals and academic medical centers, 11% in HMOs, group practices, and long-term care, 10% in consulting, and the remaining 20% in a variety of health-related and other areas. An ongoing Job Referral Service provides information and contacts for alumni seeking career changes.

The Alumni Association is committed to maintaining the Minnesota Program's tradition of excellence. The Executive-in-Residence program brings a senior executive in healthcare management to campus for a year to participate in class lectures, identify strategic health management issues, and serves as a student resource.

Alumni serve as affiliated faculty, guest lecturers, residency and fellowship preceptors and vital contacts for placement upon graduation.

Students develop relationships with alumni through the Mentor Program. Alumni serve as role models and advisors, becoming involved in student concerns, plans and goals. Many mentor relationships continue well past graduation on into a student's career.
