Course Summary

The Executive MSc in Healthcare Decision-Making is a unique programme developed in collaboration with the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE), known internationally for its contribution to the quality and efficiency of healthcare and its scientific rigour. This approach combined with the academic excellence of LSE’s faculty has led to a truly exceptional programme, with a tailored offering of skill-oriented and policy-based courses that will enable a strategic view of healthcare systems required to transition into a senior leadership role.

Considering extensive reforms taking place in the way health systems operate, understanding the complexities of healthcare markets, how to navigate these, and how to make informed decisions about resource allocation are increasingly important for active participation in strategic decision-making across the health sector. Combining the interdisciplinary expertise and research excellence of LSE faculty with the flexibility of executive study, this programme delivers a well-rounded intellectual and practical grounding in essential skills to appraise health care interventions, products, and policies, and contribute to evidence-based decision-making.

Addressing a need for qualified experts across the international healthcare market, the programme is tailored to participants coming from the pharmaceutical and medical technology industries, medical professionals, health insurance, healthcare management, governmental and non-governmental organisations, and individuals looking to transition into leadership roles.
