Overview

The Maternal-Child Health Systems Master is offered by Bastyr University. The program prepares trained midwives, doulas, childbirth educators, lactation consultants, and other maternal-child health care providers with the knowledge and skills to expand expertise in maternal-child health beyond clinical care delivery. Students build on earlier education and practical experience, develop leadership skills, and acquire a systems-based perspective to promote more humanistic, holistic, rights-based, and equitable leadership in maternal and infant care.

Key Facts

Applicants should have a bachelor’s degree or equivalent number of credits (180 quarter credits) from an accredited university or a MEAC accredited midwifery program with a GPA of 3.0 or higher. Applicants without a bachelor’s degree who have a midwifery certificate or other professional training will be considered on a case-by-case basis. Applicants must also have appropriate training (with appropriate certification when available) and documentation of a minimum of two (2) full-time years of practical experience as a midwife, doula, childbirth educator, or lactation specialist. Other credentialed MCH professionals such as perinatal nurses, public health specialists, social workers, health care financial experts, psychologists, and physicians seeking leadership training consistent with humanistic, rights-based maternal-infant care will also be eligible. Admitted students must have access to a laptop computer with high-speed Internet, a webcam, and a headset.
