Objectives
As part of the continuity of its educational program, CIAM offers this professional undergraduate program in Hospital Management, Information Systems and Hospital Logistics . It is intended to promote the development of medico-social institution/ hospital management. It complements the spectrum of hospital management specialists training already offered by other Moroccan institutions.
After two common core years, the health sector offers two options, namely:

By the end of the option courses, graduates will have a global vision of the multiple and complex issues of the management of a hospital or a medico-social institution. They will be able to develop a critical perspective of the functioning of this institution, to evaluate the relevance of the actions proposed in the context of hospital management projects. They will be able to analyze hospital problems by proposing approaches using relevant tools.
2-Information Systems and Hospital Logistics
By the end of the option courses, graduates will have acquired skills both in the implementation of complex computer systems, and in logistics engineering in a hospital environment. The aim is to train logistician executives who are familiar with computer and communication technologies that can be used in logistics systems to manage the specific flows of patients, emergencies and operating room, materials (blood samples, blood products, pharmaceuticals, waste, etc.), car parks, and finally specialized material handling.
Target Skills
By the end of the training, the graduates will be able to:

Training Content
Semesters 1, 2, 3 and 4 constitute a common core. The last year is a specialization year in either Hospital Management or Information Systems and Hospital Logistics. A three-month full-time internship in a hospital environment is mandatory during the 3rd year.
The first two years of core courses allow the student to acquire a solid foundation in management.
The last year of specialization allows the student to know the hospital environment and how it works. For Hospital Management students, this year offers a global vision of the multiple and complex challenges of running a hospital. Students will be able to develop a critical eye of how this institution is run. Information Systems and Hospital Logistics students will have acquired a double competence in the implementation of complex computer systems, and in logistics engineering in a hospital environment.
The end-of-studies internship is an opportunity for the students, to familiarlize with the professional life and put into practice the acquired knowledge and a practical know-how. The internship will also be an opportunity to know the hospital and its working. A tutoring system will be set up to assist students in their search for an internship and then accompany them into the company.
