DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The objective of the Doctoral Program in Health Services Research, Policy and Administration is to train health services researchers to assist clinicians, health insurers, health policymakers, and other key decision-makers in their efforts to improve access, quality and cost in the U.S. healthcare system. In their early years in the program, the AHRQ/NRSA traineeships represent our students' largest and most important source of funding and are crucial in our efforts to attract high quality students. Although some of our faculty direct research centers and hold endowed chairs that provide research assistantships for our doctoral students, those sources of support are not sufficient to accommodate all of our students or all of their research interests. We recently have added faculty in important areas such as patient-centered outcomes research, patient safety and quality, industrial and systems engineering, demography, and analysis of public opinion data, and we rely on AHRQ/NRSA traineeships, in part, to provide stable, multi-year support for talented students whose interests lie in those areas. Although our doctoral program occasionally admits students directly from undergraduate programs, the vast majority of our students have a masters level degree and several years of work experience. Our doctoral curriculum has a strong core curriculum in statistics and econometrics, research design, sociology, economics, epidemiology, and research ethics. Our students then choose one of the following areas of emphasis: Multidisciplinary Social Sciences, Sociology of Health and Illness, Health Decision Science, Health Organization and Management Science, Clinical Outcomes Research, Health Policy, and Health Economics. Alternatively, students can obtain a formal minor in another department in the University. Our students typically complete the program in about five years, although some have finished the program in as little as three years. We are requesting a total of 13 traineeships (slots) per year with the intent of guaranteeing support for five students for thei first year and four students for their second and third years of their doctoral training program.

描述（由申请人提供）：卫生服务研究，政策和管理博士课程的目标是培养卫生服务研究人员，以协助临床医生，健康保险公司，卫生政策制定者和其他关键决策者努力， 改善美国医疗保健系统的可及性、质量和成本。在他们在该计划的早期，AHRQ/NRSA培训代表我们的学生的最大和最重要的资金来源，并在我们努力吸引高质量的学生至关重要。虽然有些 我们的教师指导研究中心，并举行捐赠椅子，为我们的博士生提供研究助理，这些支持来源不足以容纳我们所有的学生或他们的研究兴趣。我们最近在重要领域增加了教师，如以患者为中心的成果研究，患者安全和质量，工业和系统工程，人口统计学和民意数据分析，我们依靠AHRQ/NRSA培训，部分，为有才华的学生提供稳定，多年的支持，他们的兴趣在于这些领域。虽然我们的博士课程偶尔承认学生直接从本科课程，我们的学生绝大多数都有硕士学位和几年的工作经验。我们的博士课程在统计学和计量经济学，研究设计，社会学，经济学，流行病学和研究伦理学方面有很强的核心课程。然后，我们的学生选择以下重点领域之一：多学科社会科学，健康和疾病社会学，健康决策科学，健康组织和管理科学，临床成果研究，卫生政策和卫生经济学。或者，学生可以在大学的另一个部门获得正式的未成年人。我们的学生通常在大约五年内完成该计划，虽然有些人在短短三年内完成了该计划。我们要求每年提供13个实习生名额，以保证第一年为5名学生提供支持，第二年和第三年为4名学生提供支持。
