Degree: Master of Social Work (MSW)

Program Overview

The "Side by Side" Dual Degree Program leads to both the Masters of Social Work (MSW) and the Masters in Public Health (MPH). The MSW/MPH program will prepare graduates with flexibility for professional leadership in a broad range of health and social services within communities and organizations. Areas of study will include prevention, program planning, development and evaluation.

The impetus for this dual program arises from a growing societal recognition that issues once thought to represent individual-level interventions, such as family violence, substance use, and mental illness, are multi-level problems demanding multi-level interventions for their amelioration. The MSW/MPH Degree Program will equip students with a broader set of skills and perspectives to address such issues.

Program Requirements

This degree option is open to full-time students only due to the sequencing of courses. Applicants must apply separately and meet the admission requirement of both professional programs and are encouraged to apply simultaneously to both schools. This dual degree can be completed in 36 months. Dual-degree students must receive the MSW and MPH degrees simultaneously to be granted credit for specific courses taken in the other program.
