Our flagship Master of Social Work (MSW) program provides advanced preparation for a career serving those in need. We train social workers who
will provide life-enhancing services, just as we develop leaders who will influence policy to create a more just and humane world. Whatever role they choose, our graduates are prepared to anticipate and address the issues that matter most… in our homes, in our communities and in our world.
