A master’s student at The Ohio State University must complete a minimum of 30 graduate-level credit hours. The Master of Healthcare Innovation (MHI) program requires a minimum of 31 graduate-level credit hours. Eighty percent of this credit must be new credits and must be completed at The Ohio State University over a period of at least two semesters. For students transferring coursework into the MHI program from another institution, up to 6 credit hours may be applied to the minimum credit hour requirement for the program.
All 12 credit hours of the College of Nursing’s Healthcare Leadership and Innovation graduate certificate may be transferred and applied to the MHI program if the certificate is completed.
Any MHI curriculum coursework taken at OSU prior to enrollment in the MHI program must be transferred and is not automatically applied to the student’s degree progress. To transfer this MHI curriculum coursework, please complete the Committee and Examination Form in GradForms. Be sure to select “Other” and then explain your request. A student may apply up to 10 credit hours of graduate non-degree credit from OSU to the MHI program.
To transfer coursework taken at another institution, the student must complete and submit the Transfer a Course into the CON Grad Program form in Beacon, which will require the inclusion of syllabi of the original courses.
