Curriculum Guides
We offer three programs of study: advanced-standing (1-year), full-time (2-year), and part-time (3-year). Classes are offered primarily face-to-face for both our advanced-standing and full-time cohorts. Elective courses and courses for our part-time cohort are offered in a blended modality. The Department of Social Work reserves the right to change the program of study and course schedule as needed. Students will work with their advisors to ensure programs of study are completed promptly.
Sample MSW Cohort Schedules
To help students better understand the structure and expectations of each cohort, we’ve provided sample schedules for all three program options. These schedules reflect the typical course sequence for the fall semester of the first year and are designed to complement the curriculum guides.
