MSW/MPH

The LSU School of Social Work and the LSU Health Sciences Center in New Orleans School of Public Health offer a concurrent degree program through which students may receive both the Master of Public Health (MPH) and the Master of Social Work (MSW) degrees.  Students successfully completing the concurrent degree program receive two separate degrees: the MSW awarded by the LSU School of Social Work and the MPH awarded by the LSU Health Sciences Center New Orleans School of Public Health.

MSW-MPH dual-degree students will satisfy the requirements for 60 MSW credit hours and a minimum of 33 to 36 MPH credit hours (with 10 to 13 hours of transfer credits depending on the point of matriculation).
