The Department of Public Administration and the School of Social Work offer a graduate program leading to a Master of Social Work/Master of Public Administration Concurrent Degrees. The degrees are intended for those with an interest in and promise for a career in social services that will lead to top administrative roles. Degree holders will have skills and knowledge to facilitate well-being and change at all system levels. The faculty of the MSW and MPA program have agreed to a plan of study that would lead to obtaining concurrent MSW/MPA degrees ideal for the educational preparation needed for leadership roles in the social services community.
Prospective concurrent degrees students must be accepted under the admission procedures of each program. The MSW program requires a separate application available through the School of Social Work which will include the additional statement instructions and the Plan of Study form for the concurrent MSW/MPA degrees.
No degree will be conferred until the requirements of the both degrees are fulfilled.
