Please join us for an EMBA community networking reception on March 10 at the
St. Gregory Hotel in Washington, D.C. This free event is a great opportunity to
reconnect with former classmates and your favorite faculty. Vice Dean
Dr. Hugh Courtney and the
newly appointed Assistant Dean of Executive Programs Greg Hanifee will be in attendance
to meet and reconnect.
Smith EMBA alumni and current students along with your guests are invited to
attend. If you're considering the Smith EMBA program for next January, this is
an excellent opportunity to learn about the program and meet former students.
The event will include a brief discussion and Q&A led by distinguished faculty
member Dr. Ritu Agarwal, Dean's Chair
of Information Systems and director of the Center for Health Information and
Decision Systems (CHIDS), with a panel of smith EMBA alumni. The healthcare
system in the United States is undergoing a radical transformation. The
controversial healthcare reform bill has raised concerns on a number of
significant issues. Among these issues are healthcare quality and access, a push
to digitize healthcare, and an increasing national healthcare cost burden. How
are various stakeholders responding to these challenges? What are the
implications of the impending changes for the government, the military, the
medical profession, and different types of business organizations? Join us for a
night of networking and stimulating discussion as we attempt to define the new
healthcare landscape.
