On Wagner Graduates

I continue to be impressed with the caliber of the graduates of the health policy and management program. They are well prepared to work in a health care environment that is complex and requires competencies in financial, policy and strategic analysis as well as the capacity to apply theories in operational settings.

Carol Raphael, President and Chief Executive Officer, Visiting Nurse Service of New York


"During my 11 years as president of the United Hospital Fund, no fewer than 14 members of our staff, which on average numbers 55, are graduates or have been enrolled in your NYU Wagner program. That 'market test' speaks for itself."

James Tallon, United Hospital Fund
