UW Executive Master of Health Administration (MHA) courses are taught in a flexible hybrid (HyFlex) format that allows students to choose in-person or online attendance for live classes taught by the same instructor at the same time. Students have the flexibility to choose whether you want to participate remotely or attend classes in person at our Bellevue facility.
Our Bellevue classrooms are equipped with HyFlex technology that allows for synchronous remote participation via a live-session virtual meeting platform. Each course has a HyFlex facilitator who assists with any technology issues or concerns, ensuring an equitable experience for remote and in-person students.
