  • The program is based on the recognition that many social workers are involved in the health delivery system and are interested in taking a broader, population-based look at the system. In addition, new roles are evolving for social workers in the health sector. These include social work in the administration of health delivery systems and participation in the health policy process at local, state, and national levels.
  • The MSW/MPH program may be pursued on a full-time or part-time basis. Students may earn the MSW prior to completing the MPH, as they are not simultaneous degrees. Students then continue their studies at the School of Public Health, where they must earn at least 32 credits in residence (primary registration at the School of Public Health in courses numbered SPH XX 700 and above). No courses taken outside of the School of Public Health will count toward the MPH, including courses taken at other Boston University schools and colleges.
  • Students generally may not earn the MPH before they earn the MSW, and most students find the curriculum works best if they earn the MSW first.
  • To earn the MPH, MSW/MPH students must complete all School of Public Health requirements, including core MPH courses, concentration, culminating, and practicum requirements. Students satisfy the requirement of SPH SB 721, the core course in Social & Behavioral Sciences, for the Master of Public Health, when they have successfully completed the MSW.
