The Doctorate of Social Work (DSW) is a prestigious degree that is a steppingstone to building your career. The DSW is an accelerated 45 credit program designed to be completed in two years, including two summer intensives. Classes are conveniently scheduled on the Brooklyn campus one evening per week. All classes are a hybrid of in person and online instruction. LIU's DSW is unique in that students choose from three areas of specialization: - Teaching in the Academy: This track prepares you to become a professor of social work - Advanced Practice Management: This track prepares you to build a successful private practice and to build your own social work business - Organizational Leadership: This track prepares you to move up the career ladder in an organization |
These courses are intended as guidelines. Speak to your guidance counsellor to see what courses are offered at your school.
