Ok - So I get that these are all different tracks but I still had some practical questions:

Is there an advantage in terms of finding employment and salaries in terms of pursuing

1) MSW only (clinical track)

2) MPH/MS only in Health Policy and Management

3) MSW/MPH combination ( Clinical MSW and Health Policy and Management MPH)

A side question but not as important to answer : Is it worth the cost to pursue an MS in Health Policy and Managment at Harvard vs MSW/MPH at either Columbia or University of Washington? Are any of them worth the cost when compared to the post-graduation and long-term employment opportunities and salaries?

I already have about 10 years experience working in Public Health/Social Work and already at 60 K salary range. Considerng MSW to LCSW track b/c I'd like to be able to consider having my own practice.

Thanks!
