San Diego Academic Center

The San Diego Academic Center offers a fully accredited Master of Social Work program for full-time and part-time students. The center, located 20 miles north of San Diego in Rancho Bernardo, offers foundation and concentration courses for the MSW degree, along with the option of a military social work specialization. The San Diego Academic Center enjoys a close working relationship with Camp Pendleton, the major West Coast base of the U.S. Marine Corps, as well as the VA Medical Center and other government, health and social services agencies in the area. The USC School of Social Work has long recognized the growing need to train social workers in mental health services for veterans and their families, and the academic center’s proximity to such a large military population offers students an ideal place to study military social work.
