About Master of Social Work - Advanced, MSW - at The University of British Columbia (UBC)

Program Overview

The MSW at UBC can be achieved within one of three fields of practice: Health and social care; Family and Children's Services; Social and International Development. Organized around an ethic of social care and social justice, each stream of practice shares some core courses and electives germane to the student's field of practice. Related practicum experiences build on knowledge and skills cultivated in the classroom. Typically, students complete a practicum in the field of practice addressed in their area of concentration.

What sets the UBC program apart?

With a focus on social justice, the School prepares students for advanced social work practice at undergraduate, master and doctoral levels.
The School of Social Work has 16.5 full-time faculty and enrolls approximately 65 Master's students each year.
We are small enough that students and faculty can enjoy regular one-on-one contact.

Career Options

Graduates are most often employed in human service organizations and health care, the public service, and non-governmental organizations both in Canada and internationally. They may work in direct practice, policy analysis and development or community development. Students enter the program with social service experience and as a professional program, the MSW builds on that experience and prepares them for career advancement in their field of practice.
