Academic Certificate Application and Completion Requirements
Students interested in pursuing an academic certificate must formally apply and be admitted to the certificate program at least one semester prior to completing all coursework in the certificate program. Currently enrolled graduate students apply via the Student Center in Orion under "Apply to a Certificate Program." Prospective students who have not yet matriculated must submit a certificate application using the
UT Dallas Graduate Application Portal
prior to enrolling in certificate coursework. Furthermore, all students pursuing a certificate must submit an application to graduate from the certificate program in the semester in which they complete their certificate coursework. Contact the certificate program for instructions on how to submit the graduation application. Failing to apply to graduate from a certificate program in the semester in which all certificate coursework is completed may result in the assessment of additional fees and delay in receiving the certificate.

Overview
The combined Master of Science (MS) in Healthcare Leadership and Management with an Emphasis for Physicians - Executive Education and Executive MBA with an Emphasis in Healthcare Leadership and Management (for Physicians) double degree option is provided by the Alliance for Physician Leadership program at the Naveen Jindal School of Management. The double degree is a minimum 63 -semester credit hour specialized graduate degree program designed specifically for senior physicians in leadership roles. The Executive MS HCLM (for Physicians) degree plan requires the completion of nine 4-credit hour residential classes which are held on campus. The APL program curriculum is comprised of healthcare-concentrated coursework with classes taught by industry experts that prepare students to effectively lead in an ever-changing, dynamic healthcare environment. The in- residence classes provide a unique, interactive atmosphere where learners discuss relevant topics in healthcare, analyze case studies, and synthesize concepts for real-world application as physician leaders. Learning alongside peers in a hybrid model of in-residence and online classes provides a rich educational experience unique to the APL Program.
Prerequisites
Degree credit is not earned for program prerequisites, however, the grade achieved in prerequisites will count toward the student's grade-point average (GPA). Special tuition, fees, and admissions requirements apply, and the program is supported entirely by participant tuition/fees.
Course Requirements
Required Courses: 63 semester credit hours
The full-day residential classes are structured on a rotation cycle and available approximately every 18 months; a different class is generally offered on campus every two months following a Saturday through Tuesday schedule. Online classes are typically offered at least once per year on a set schedule and follow the standard UT Dallas academic calendar. Students enrolled in the APL Executive MBA degree program have the option to start with either the residential or the online coursework, and courses can be taken in any order. The double degree requires the successful completion of a minimum of 63 semester credit hours included in the residential and online core coursework.
