Widener University’s Graduate Programs in Human Sexuality grew from its origins at the University of Pennsylvania from 1974-1999, offering the only nationally accredited doctoral program in human sexuality in the United States. The program has grown to include a wide range of options for those pursuing a career in human sexuality.

Depending on your interest in a career as a sexuality educator, counselor, or therapist, you can work toward a MEd in Human Sexuality or an EdD in Human Sexuality either alone or as part of a dual degree program offered in collaboration with Widener’s Center for Social Work Education, or Institute for Graduate Clinical Psychology. These programs are excellent choices for students wishing to do sex therapy or other work in clinical sexology. For those who enroll in one of the dual degree programs (see links at the left) or who already have a clinical Masters’ degree, we offer a clinical track for the MEd or EdD in Human Sexuality.
