  • University Storm Recovery Updates

    UPDATE: Tuesday, Oct. 29, 8:30 a.m.
    We are pleased to announce that Wi-Fi service has been restored to the Asheville Center. Current students, faculty, and staff may now access the building for study, work or other necessary activities. Please note there may be occasional short outages as our service provider continues the recovery process.

    Drinking water is not available in the building. Some bottled water is available on site, but we encourage anyone using the building to bring their own drinking water if possible. The bathrooms on site now have working toilets.

    We appreciate your patience and understanding as we navigate the challenges posed by Hurricane Helene. Please stay tuned for further updates.

Program Highlights


Comprising 57 total credit hours, the dual-degree curriculum includes all the core requirements for both an MPH and MBA accredited by the Council on Education for Public Health (CEPH) and the Accreditation Council for Business Schools and Programs (ACBSP). 

Requirements for the MPH serve as elective credits for the MBA and vice versa. The result is a streamlined program that allows you to earn both degrees over a projected three years — about a year less than the two degrees would require if completed separately — at a significantly lower cost.

  • Complete two master's programs simultaneously. 
  • Fall, spring or summer start.
  • Built for working professionals. Flexible and convenient course schedules and online, asynchronous classes that are ideal for maintaining a balance with work-life-study commitments.
  • Field experiences and applied research opportunities tailored to your goals and interests.
  • Expanded career opportunities that bridge the gap between healthcare and business.
  • Equip yourself to pursue leadership roles in healthcare organizations, pharmaceutical companies, consulting firms, government agencies, non-profit organizations and more.

LR has a program structured for adult learners. I had the opportunity to go to campus for lectures. When I was traveling for business, I tuned in to Zoom from my hotel room. I valued that flexibility.
