Dual Degrees with Social Work

Rationale

Students at the School of Theology can pursue any of the following degrees in conjunction with the Master of Social Work through the Boston University School of Social Work:  Master of Divinity (MDiv/MSW), Master of Theological Studies (MTS/MSW), or Doctor of Ministry (DMin/MSW).  The dual degree programs of the School of Theology and the School of Social Work are designed for students who wish to combine the knowledge and disciplines of theology and ministry with those of social work.  The overall purpose of these dual degrees is to add a faith dimension to professional social work practice, and to add an urban clinical or macro practice dimension to theological studies.  The curricula of the dual degree programs overlap such that both degrees can be acheived by the student in a shorter time than pursuing each individually.
