Overview

Program Description The mission of the Master of Social Work program is to engage students in an educational program that prepares them to think critically and evaluate practice and programs and contribute to the body of social work knowledge through active research. Students will be prepared to work effectively and collaboratively as professional social workers to enhance human well-being and promote economic, political and social justice in a diverse and global society. Using justice centered and community based practice approaches, the MSW program will prepare social work professionals at the advanced generalist level who can practice across a variety of social service settings. Applicants submit a supplemental essay at the time of application. Students who have completed a BSW within the last five years are able to enter the program in an Advanced Standing status and take 32 credit hours. If a student’s BSW degree is greater than five years old, they are required to take SW 610: Social Work Theory and Frameworks in Summer Session to be granted Advanced Standing Status. Students who have completed a Bachelor’s degree with the required prerequisites (see Admissions Section) enter the MSW Program as Foundation students, and take 59 credit hours. Advanced Standing and Concentration are synonymous as Advanced Standing Students join those Foundation students advancing to their Concentration (second) year of study.
