The program prepares students in advanced social work practice in public and private health agencies.  It focuses on two primary concentrations: The first is on the managerial role in the health care agency which examines the delivery of social health services  to ensure that the goals and objectives of the services are met.   The second  is on  advanced practice in social work in health care which empowers students to engage in effective collaboration with the members of the health care team by providing them with critical and research-based information for the treatment and recovery process of patients and groups through in-depth psychosocial histories and assessments.
