MMA- Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 I'm currently completing a course-based MSW. I'm wondering if anyone has information about PhD admissions for those of us that complete a course-based MSW - is it still possible to make it into a PhD? Is a thesis a requirement? Thanks for any info! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SW_PHD Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 What do you mean by "course-based" MSW? As opposed to what other type of MSW? Haven't heard that term. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MMA- Posted April 13, 2016 Author Share Posted April 13, 2016 I'm attending University of Calgary's MSW Leadership in Social Service specialization. Completion of the degree doesn't require that I submit a thesis - as I understand it, some universities offer MSW programs that require the submission of a thesis while others just require the completion of courses and placements. I'm wondering if this will hurt my chances of being admitted to a PhD program for social work or if I should seek someone out to supervise a thesis?

MSW.hopeful Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 @MMA- Hi there, i applied to the MSW LHS specialization and am playing the waiting game now for acceptance or refusal. How is the program and is it quite a small group of students? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
