I used to be a social worker for Santa Clara county. They were offering a scholarship program to become a forensics specialist. I am wondering if any State governments or the Federal Government have any scholarships available for anything like this. I am a single parent, woman, and veteran and already have a Master's Degree in Psychology. I want a PhD but cannot afford one. Kind Regards, Tracy

Earning a doctoral degree in social work, DSW, is reccommended for experienced social work professionals who wish to further their careers by gaining training in advanced practice, research, and policies. Much of the course load emphasizes both qualitative and quantitative methods of analysis and tends to lead towards a career in teaching, research, leadership roles, or opening one's own practice. You can learn more about social work degree programs and sign up for information here, Social Work Degree Info.

That being said, the doctor of psychology is a professional doctorate. Psychology degrees in the clinical sense include study in the areas of basic science, laboratory experience, and research.
