Social Work, M.S.W.

The Master of Social Work (M.S.W.) degree program requires 60 credits (regular track) for those without a BSW degree accredited by the Council on Social Work Education, and 30 credits (advanced standing) for those with a B.S.W. degree accredited by the Council on Social Work Education. Regular track students take the foundation year of content, followed by the Clinical/Activist concentration year, where they join their advanced standing colleagues who only take the concentration year of content in Clinical/Activist Social Work.
