What they say about MIHMEP

"I came to MIHMEP expecting to gain knowledge and skills to bring together my two desires - healthcare and management. MIHMEP was my first and only choice when I decided that after my DMD degree I wanted to pursue an MSc. The program has a great reputation, and not by chance or luck. The greatest asset I have received so far in MIHMEP, apart from amazing colleagues and great teachers, is a completely changed mind-set. And that is something that, for me, has a great value".

Ana Stevanovic - Serbian

"I chose MIHMEP because of its people. The heterogeneity of my classmates, the exposure to leading faculty, and the access to Bocconi’s extensive alumni community all contribute to the strength of the first program in health management in Europe".
