    LOUISVILLE, Ky. – A national publication for health care managers has ranked the University of Louisville’s College of Business as one of the top business graduate schools for physician-executives.

    UofL appeared on a list Modern Healthcare compiled in May of the top graduate schools awarding advanced degrees in health care business administration in 2013-14. The ranking is based on how many full-time students are pursuing the degree at each school.

    UofL placed at the 20th spot with 45 students, just under Yale School of Management’s 48 students. Rice University’s graduate business school topped the list with 231 students.

    UofL#8217;s business school has offered an MBA degree with a health care focus since 2011. Students in the 20-month program take weekend courses preparing them for executive positions in hospital administration, senior care, health insurance, biomedicine and related areas.

    Modern Healthcare is a subscription-only weekly print magazine, website and e-newsletter covering business and policy news for health care industry executives.
