Social Work


The Department of Social Work does not offer an advanced degree program. However, the department offers some graduate courses for students interested in pursuing graduate studies in social work. The courses have been developed in cooperation with the College of Social Work at Ohio State University. Thus, credit from these courses may transfer to the College of Social Work if you are admitted to its graduate program. Alternatively, the courses also may be used to count toward clock hours needed for social work relicensing in Ohio. For admission to any one of the courses, you must be admitted to a graduate program. If you are not in a graduate program, you may seek admission to the sociology graduate program with nondegree status.
