Suffolk University

Department of Sociology

M.A. in Women's Health

This program is the first in the United States to offer a broad-based graduate-level social science degree in Women’s Health. Suffolk’s Program goes beyond a solely biological or clinical model to offer a broad understanding of women’s health as including cultural, emotional, psychosocial, legal, and economic components. This program aims to educate a new generation of educators, leaders, and advocates who can contribute to women’s health and foster awareness of women’s health issues in a variety of clinical, civic, educational, and community contexts. Combining academic training with a required, hands-on community internship, the program provides intellectual and practical tools for working with women of diverse ages and backgrounds.
