Educational Requirements:

Students should take challenging high school courses in business, science, math and English.

Most healthcare administrators have master’s degrees in healthcare administration or business administration.

Reflection:

I don’t think I’d like to be a healthcare administrator because it sounds like a lot of paper work and you have to administer other people and I don’t really like doing that.
