Social Work: Social Work MSW

The Master of Social Work (MSW) program is distinguished by the integration of research and practice in both the classroom and its practicum education. The program offers six fields of specialization:

  • Children and Their Families

  • Gerontology

  • Health and Mental Health

  • Human Services Management and Leadership

  • Indigenous Trauma and Resiliency

  • Social Justice and Diversity

It is fully accredited by the Canadian Association for Social Work Education.

The Faculty of Social Work offers the MSW program in a two-year option or an advanced-standing option for applicants entering with a Bachelor of Social Work (BSW) degree, in all fields of specialization except Indigenous Trauma and Resiliency (two-year option only).

All students are expected to graduate with an advanced level of knowledge and professional competence in a chosen area of social work practice.
