In July 2009, The University of Southern Mississippi approved the formation of the Health Administration Student Association (HASA). This student-driven association will provide its members with professional networking opportunities, career planning, and workshops & presentations by healthcare administrators from local, state and national level health care organizations.
Any Southern Miss undergraduate or graduate student with an interest in health administration is encouraged to join; however, we strongly encourage students in the following programs to become a HASA member:
Currently, HASA has over 60 members from undergraduate and graduate programs in a variety of degree programs in the university.
Recent events, workshops and presentations include:
