# Building On-Ramps and Stackable Pathways with George Washington University

#### Discover how GW’s partnership with us—now a decade strong—has continued to evolve to meet learners’ needs in this case study snapshot from our 2022 Transparency & Outcomes Report.

*>>> George Washington University is one of several partners featured in our *[*2022 Transparency & Outcomes Report*](https://impact.edx.org/?hsLang=en)* that collaborate with us to deliver innovative, high-quality online learning experiences that drive strong outcomes for learners around the world. <<<*

 

### **Meeting a Societal Need**

[George Washington University](https://www.edx.org/search?q=george+washington&partner=George+Washington+University) (GW) first partnered with 2U in 2013 to develop an [online Master of Public Health](https://www.edx.org/masters/gwu-master-of-public-health) (MPH) degree program that could empower more people around the world to pursue careers in this critical field. 

Over the course of the partnership, the program’s success has inspired the launch of an [online Master of Health Administration](https://www.edx.org/masters/george-washington-master-of-health-administration) (MHA), [boot camps](https://www.edx.org/search?q=george+washington+university&tab=boot-camp) in eight tech disciplines, and four [executive education](https://www.getsmarter.com/universities/george-washington-university) courses. 

### **Achieving Strong Student Outcomes**

By the end of 2022, with the support of 2U, GW achieved over 9,000 enrollments across all of these programs. 

Approximately 46% of registered degree students belonged to underrepresented minority groups, while over 360 boot camp graduates were hired by employers like the U.S. Department of Justice, Leidos, and Deloitte via our Career Engagement Network. 

### **Continuing to Innovate**

In 2022, as demand for qualified public health professionals soared, GW and 2U announced plans for the creation of a new [fully stackable degree pathway,](https://press.edx.org/george-washington-university-joins-edx?hsLang=en) which will help more learners accelerate their careers and pursue a degree in public health.

The new MicroMasters® program in Public Health will give learners the option to earn credit toward the MPH@GW or use it as a standalone credential—while GW’s new [online Doctorate of Public Health](https://www.edx.org/doctorate/george-washington-doctor-of-public-health) (DrPH) will enable online learners to continue their studies beyond a master’s degree.

“2U has been a great partner in helping GW expand access to public health and healthcare management education when the need for a strong public health workforce is more important than ever, in the U.S. and globally," says Lynn Goldman, Dean of GW’s Milken Institute of Public Health. "This new partnership continues that evolution, broadening the education pathways available for learners to become public health professionals and leading the way to improved health for everyone, everywhere.”
