Graduate Catalog

Dual Degree Programs: MSW/MPA, MSW/MHSA

These programs are designed for those who wish to combine the development of administrative and managerial expertise in defined service areas—public or non-profit agency administration or health services administration—with the knowledge, skills, and values of the social work profession. The joint focus prepares students for a range of professional options and opportunities. Participation in a dual degree program permits the student to earn the MSW degree with the Master of Public Administration (MPA) or Master of Health Services Administration (MHSA) at Marywood University in a manner that expedites the time required, by crediting some work earned for one degree to the requirements of the other.
