专业概况

The dual degree program in Social Work and Special Education was established at Boston University in 1988 in recognition of the fact that social workers and educators are deeply involved in working with children and families who are at risk. The goal of the program is to provide opportunities for students to develop skills in both professional arenas and to take leadership in designing and administering creative direct service and programmatic responses to the changing needs of schools, families, and communities.

The program is a multifaceted course of study leading to two master’s degrees—Master of Social Work (MSW) and Master of Education (EdM), with options to focus either in Special Education or Educational Leadership. Teacher certification in Special Education may also be obtained with additional coursework beyond that which is required for the MSW/EdM.

The MSW/EdM program usually takes two and a half to three years of full-time study, though more time may be required if the student wishes to pursue teacher licensure in Special Education.

Programs and Goals

Both social workers and educators are deeply involved in working with children and families at risk. The dual degree programs are designed to give students skills that crosscut these disciplines that will be applicable in a variety of social work and education settings and in a variety of professional roles. Interested students concentrate in either Clinical or Macro Social Work at the School of Social Work. At the Wheelock College of Education & Human Development, they concentrate in Special Education or Educational Leadership and may obtain teacher certification with additional coursework. Program graduates are currently working in a wide variety of positions from early intervention programs to AIDS education, school administration and school social work to YMCA program planning. Some describe themselves as primarily social workers, others as primarily teachers/administrators, and still others as both.
