Master of Social Work Online: Curriculum

Curriculum details.

Learn to deliver quality practice to individuals, groups, organizations, and communities in the University of Kentucky’s online CSWE-accredited Master of Social Work. The MSW offers two options:

  • The Advanced Standing program requires that prospective students have earned their BSW within the past seven years and have a 3.5 GPA in social work classes. This program is 30 credit hours.

With each program option, you’ll complete any one of our multiple certificates or an Individualized Plan of Study (IPS). The courses within the certificate or IPS replace elective course options and do not increase the credits required to complete your MSW curriculum.
