Social workers examine individual thoughts, feelings, actions as well as the social environment for opportunities for growth and change.
Whether you want to advance your career in human services or pivot to a care-centered career, our accredited master's degree program will provide you with the skills necessary to become an advanced generalist social worker.
We prepare competent, advanced generalist social work practitioners to meet the needs of multicultural populations in a dynamic midwestern metropolis. We prepare you to be culturally proficient, ethical leaders and service providers engaged in interprofessional, multi-systemic community-based practice who advocate for social and economic justice, enhance human well-being and support an individual’s capacity to address their own needs.
Our advanced generalist curriculum is based on core professional competencies.
Many classes are scheduled for late afternoons, evenings or weekends to accommodate working professionals.
Depending on your bachelor's degree, there are two tracks to choose between in the program.
Either track can be completed on a part-time schedule.
An undergraduate degree in social work is not required for entry into the MSW program. However, only students who hold a bachelor’s degree in social work can apply for the advanced standing program.
