Summary

Saint Louis University's Master of Social Work (M.S.W.) prepares social work professionals to work with vulnerable populations facing health, social and economic challenges.

Social workers are educationally prepared to provide services including therapy, policy advocacy, case management, group work, crisis intervention, children and family practice and leadership for nonprofit organizations. M.S.W.-level social workers practice in a variety of human service organizations including family and community centers, mental health and treatment centers, hospitals, schools, nonprofit agencies, residential children’s or adult centers, justice centers and many more organizations.

 

SLU's M.S.W. curriculum includes generalist courses, advanced practice courses in an area of concentration, hallmark and research courses, and field practica. The generalist courses provide the basic social work theory and methods for working with individuals, families, groups, organizations and communities.

Students then select an advanced practice area of concentration and proceed with courses in these areas. Saint Louis University's School of Social Work offers three concentrations:

• Applied behavior analysis
• Clinical
• Community and organization

SLU's M.S.W. degree is 48 credits for clinical and community and organization concentrations (the applied behavior analysis concentration is 53 credits due to students' potential dual credentialing), with full-time and part-time options available. Students with a Bachelor of Social Work from a Council on Social Work Education (CSWE) accredited program may earn up to 15 credits of advanced standing toward the M.S.W.
