About this programme
The School of Social Work offers two professional programs, one at the undergraduate level, one at the masters level, as well as a PhD program. The Bachelor of Arts degree in Social Welfare (BASW) program prepares students for entry-level generalist practice. The Master of Social Work (MSW) graduate professional programs, which have full-time, part-time evening, and part-time online options, prepare students for advanced practice within a field of specialization (Clinical Practice, Administration and Policy Practice and Community-Centered Integrative Practice). Both the BASW and MSW programs are accredited by the Council on Social Work Education.
