專(zhuān)業(yè)概況
在這里學(xué)什么?
Through a collaborative program between the VCU School of Social Work and the Division of Epidemiology in the School of Medicine’s Department of Family Medicine and Population Health, students complete a three-year full-time program of study, including summer course work, to obtain the Master of Social Work and Master of Public Health degrees. The purpose of this dual-degree program is to prepare graduates to work with individuals, families, groups, communities and/or organizations; advocate for social, health care and economic justice in a diverse and multicultural society; and promote physical and mental health across the life course.
Prospective students are required to apply separately to both programs through the appropriate application portal indicated in the Admission Requirements section of this Bulletin and must meet both sets of admission requirements. Once admitted to both programs, the student is assigned an adviser from each to develop a plan of study, typically starting with the M.S.W. course work. It is preferable that students apply to both programs at the same time so that the structured dual-degree curriculum can be optimally planned. Students in one program may also apply to the second program during the first year of study.
Students are required to complete a minimum of 45 M.S.W. credit hours and a minimum of 37 M.P.H. credit hours for the dual degree program. In the M.P.H. program, the curriculum includes 25 credit hours of core and required courses, a minimum of nine credit hours in the applied public health concentration and a minimum of three credit hours of a capstone project that examines a relevant public health topic. During the third and last year of study, dual degree students are placed in internships through the School of Social Work that focus on public health; the internship placement is approved by both the M.P.H. program director and the director of the M.S.W. field instruction. With adviser approval, the student may develop a capstone project based on work in this public health/social work placement.
