Admissions

The Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai and Fordham University's Graduate School of Social Service offer a collaborative program that enables students to simultaneously earn a Master of Social Work (MSW) degree and Master of Public Health (MPH) degree. The MSW/MPH dual degree program provides an integrative approach to address health issues among vulnerable populations.
