The Master's Degree (MSW)
About the MSW Program
The Master of Social Work program is available on a full or part-time basis and may be completed
through a thesis or a practicum route. The MSW builds on the BSW by
offering students an integrated research, policy, practice
concentration in one of the key thematic areas: social work in northern
and remote areas, First Nations, women and the human services, and
community practice and research. The aim of the MSW is to provide students with advanced social work research, policy and practice skills. It is designed to enable students to pursue independent studies that will help them undertake a variety of responsibilities in management, policy formulation, program consultation, planning, advanced social work, clinical practice, and research within the human services. |
