Marywood's Ph.D. Program in Human Development takes an interdisciplinary approach to understanding human development, while still allowing for in-depth study in one of five specializations, including social work.
The Social Work Specialization prepares students to assume a variety of roles in social work education and leadership in social work practice. A Master of Social Work (MSW) degree is required for admission into the social work specialization of the Ph.D. Program.

"Nothing could be worse than the fear that one had given up too soon, and left one unexpended effort that might have saved the world."
