DescriptionThe M.S.W. program provides an option of completing the requirements with a thesis, or a practicum. The practicum option contains two streams: the field practicum and the research practicum. Program requirements are slightly different depending on which option is chosen. Thesis students must complete five courses and a thesis. Field practicum students must complete six courses and a practicum. Research practicum students must complete six courses and a project undertaken in the field. All three groups will participate in a graduate seminar during the time they are working on the thesis or practicum component of their program. Course requirements include the following: two research courses (qualitative and quantitative research); one course which focuses on issues of social justice in Canadian society or a social policy analysis course; and one (two for field practicum students) social work practice course(s). Thesis and field practicum students will have the option to take one elective while research practicum students will be able to take two electives.
