<p>Geisinger will offer an on-site Master of Business Administration (MBA) to its healthcare leaders, with classes conducted by University of Scranton professors at three hospital campuses.</p><p>Twenty-nine students have so far earned their master&#8217;s degree in healthcare from the two-year program that began in 2015 and offers discounted tuition and reimbursement. The program is offered on-site at Geisinger Wyoming Valley Medical Center (GWV) in Wilkes-Barre, Geisinger Medical Center (GMC) in Danville and Geisinger Lewistown Hospital (GLH).</p><p>Most recently, 15 professionals from GWV including physicians and operations and support services managers received their MBAs in healthcare during a commencement ceremony in Wilkes-Barre. The University of Scranton presented a certificate to four graduates to recognize their top 100 ranking in the worldwide Business Strategy Game, and three students were inducted to the Jesuit Honor Society, Alpha Sigma Nu. The class was also offered study-abroad experiences in Brazil or Eastern/Central Europe. Last year, 14 professionals graduated in the inaugural MBA class based at GMC.</p><p>Throughout their two-year MBA journey, each graduate carried the common thread of valuing the unwavering support shared between peers.</p><p>Geisinger offers all employees education-based opportunities and tuition reimbursement &#8212; up to $3,000 for undergraduate level classes and $5,000 for graduate degree classes annually.</p><style>
