These new elements will be supplemented by an integrative experience designed to make the interdisciplinary character of the program concrete.<br><br>Dual-degree students must receive the MSW and MA degrees simultaneously to be granted credit for specific courses taken in the other program. The dual degree program offered by Case Western Reserve's Jack, Joseph and Morton Mandel School of Applied Social Sciences and the Department of Bioethics is unlike other programs in the United States.

In addition, graduates of this program will be able to help counsel health care providers, organizations, and clients, participate in setting policy, and teach others about these issues.
