Professional Master's Degree MBA in Dental Clinic Management
The increase in recent years in the number of dental professionals and in the number of dental clinics has made the clinical-dental sector one of the most competitive markets today. For this reason, it is essential for dentists to adopt the role of administrator and manager in specialized dental health centers. This is why at TECH Global University we created a Professional Master's Degree MBA in Dental Clinic Management, focused on providing students with the necessary training to become experts on the subject and thus, guarantee the stability of any health center.
Study a Professional Master's Degree in Dental Clinic Management
This academic program contains ten modules in which the pillars of dental clinic management, the design of a dental clinic (market analysis, design and validation of the business model), introduction to marketing, the value of human capital, team management, as well as time management in a dental care center, purchasing and warehouse management, applied cost-finance and dental deontology will be studied in depth. All of the above is designed with the objective that the student will be able to use theoretical, methodological and analytical tools to optimally manage their own business; which will also allow them to incorporate personal and/or work skills necessary to professionalize the sector through continuing education.
Study an online Professional Master's Degree
In this course the methodology carried out is related to demonstrate multiple simulated cases, based on real situations in which the student must investigate, establish hypotheses and provide a solution. This is designed to promote progressive and efficient learning. In addition, the teaching staff is made up of experts in pedagogy, administration and management of dental clinics. Likewise, the lessons and academic content provided are completely asynchronous, which allows our students to choose the place and time of study that best suits them; they only need to access from a digital device with an Internet connection.
