KatieinNewYork Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 Hello! I'm a newbie here. I'm planning to apply for Fall 2010 MSW programs, currently I'm narrowing down the list of schools I'd like to apply to. I can supply more info if that would help, but... My interests lie heavily on the advocacy/policy side of social work, rather then clinical. A lot of the schools I've looked at have great clinical programs, and less developed macro-level programs. I was wondering if anyone had suggestions for schools that have good advocacy/policy programs? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michigan girl Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 You will want to consider the well-known social work programs for policy/advocacy type work such as Michigan, WashU, Columbia, and UCLA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dreams Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 Take a look at U Chicago and U Maryland as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lsh37421 Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 Check out Penn's Sp2 School. They have an MSW, but also a Masters in Social Policy program. In fact you could get both degrees in 2 years if you go the dual degree route. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michigan girl Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 I also recommend University of Michigan. They have a Social Policy and Evaluation (MSW) program as well as dual-degree option with Ford School of Public Policy (emphasis on Domestic Social Policy, International Policy, Nonprofit and Public Management, etc.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
