The 60 credit Master of Social Work curriculum is divided between a 24-credit Foundation Curriculum and the Advanced Practice Curriculum of 36 credits with the following choice of primary concentrations: 1) Clinical, and 2) Management and Community Organization. Options exist for a student to take a combination of these concentrations by choosing to make one primary and one secondary. A specialization in a field of practice as well as a concentration is required in the advance curriculum. These fields of practice are: AGING
EMPLOYEE ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS
FAMILIES AND CHILDREN
HEALTH (Child, Adolescent, and Family Subspecialization possible)
MENTAL HEALTH
SOCIAL ACTION AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT
SUBSTANCE ABUSE
An individualized specialization may be developed for a student with interests not reflected among the seven existing specializations. Development of such a specialization requires special permission from the Associate Dean for the Master's Program. A student's plan devised with his/her advisor must include an advanced field placement approved by the Assistant Dean for Field Instruction in a current specialization area. Students who plan an individualized specialization must have the request form signed by the Associate Dean for the Masters Program. A sub-specialization, Children, Adolescent and Family Health is also possible within the Health Specialization.
