Dual Degree Program in Social Work and Theology
Degree Requirements
The basic MSW degree requirements apply to students enrolled in this dual-degree program. Each School of Socia Work (SSW) student selects either a Clinical or Macro social work practice major after completing all required Foundation courses. Students then complete all other requirements for their major. In the third and fourth semesters at SSW, approved elective course credit exchanges between the dual degree programs are possible. MSW degree requirements remain the same for all School of Theology (STH) degree options.
The STH degree requirements vary and should be obtained from the STH catalogue and the STH admissions office. For MDiv and DMin students with practicum requirements at both Schools, the Field Education Departments of both Schools make every effort to find practicum sites permitting both social work and theology-related practice and supervision. In this way, credit toward each degree's practice education requirements might be earned simultaneously, depending on availability of sites.
