MSW-Master of Public Health

Advance your career with a dual Master of Public Health (MPH) and Master of Social Work (MSW) program designed for working professionals and changemakers.

With 100% asynchronous public health courses and an expedited, streamlined admissions process, this program empowers you to balance your education with your life while preparing for leadership roles in health and human services.

Whether you're passionate about community wellness, policy advocacy, or integrated care, this dual degree opens doors to impactful, interdisciplinary careers.

1. Expanded career opportunities – Prepare for leadership roles in public health agencies, nonprofit organizations, healthcare systems, and government programs.
2. Integrated skill set – Combine clinical social work expertise with population health strategies to address complex social determinants of health.
3. Policy and advocacy impact – Influence health and policy through a deep understanding of both individual care and systemic change.

Individuals must independently apply and be accepted into both the School of Public Health MPH program and the School of Social Work MSW program. Once you have been accepted into this joint degree program, you will be directed to meet with your academic advisor to plan the course sequencing.

All MSW students will begin under the Interdisciplinary MPH. Once the public health core is completed, you may choose to stay under the Interdisciplinary MPH curriculum or select a concentration pathway (Epidemiology, Social & Behavioral Sciences, or Health & Policy Management).
