All Social Work Essentials courses were created with universal design principles to be accessible to all learners. If SW Essentials learners need additional support they can email: [email protected]. When students are degree seeking in the MSW program they can register for accommodations with the University of Michigan Services for Students with Disabilities Office.
Because of the quality and breadth of their training, graduates of the Joint PhD Program are heavily recruited nationally and internationally. In the past four years, the majority of graduates have secured tenure-track positions in colleges and universities. Recent graduates have also taken post-doctorate fellowships in leading universities, and have gone to work in the public, private, and nonprofit sectors.
We expect Social Work and Social Welfare PhD program graduates to experience success on the job market given the high ranking of the School of Social Work and its highly respected faculty body.
The certificate programs allow learners to explore the content covered in foundation courses covered at the University of Michigan School of Social Work. They could provide for advancement within a current position or could be used to add to a resume in hopes of obtaining a social work/social service position. The certificates can also allow qualified applicants to complete the MSW degree in less time. This will result in a cost savings for the MSW degree.
