MSW or MPH?

i have been currently thinking about attending graduate school for a joint degree in MPH/MSW. at first, i could not decide between the two, and then i noticed that there was a joint degree. lucky me!

anyway, it turns out that i may not be able to do this because i need to still work full time to get my tuition benefits and this dgree will be hard to complete on a part time basis.

my question is if you have either of these degrees or both, what do you do?

also, which one would be a better degree overall? which one would have more job opportunities?

thanks for your help!

I have an MSW and I’m an LCSW. I have found that I have more job opportunities and significantly more pay due to being an LCSW. I’m not sure what an MPH degree is, but if you are looking to expand your job opportunities and paycheck, pick a program/area of study that will help you to get a professional license later on.
