MasterTrack^™ Cohorts

Coursera will offer several MasterTrack Certificate cohort start dates throughout the year. Students can enroll in any cohort, but if they are planning to pursue the full MSW degree following certificate completion, should align the ending of their cohort with the start of the MSW program. Students may be able to enter a cohort up to two weeks following a published cohort date. To inquire about this, email ssw.msw.info@umich.edu.

The MasterTrack certificate was designed to be completed over a 6 month period (taking 2 classes at a time), or a 4 month period (taking 3 classes at a time).

Please note:

• It is strongly discouraged for students to take more than 3 classes at a time, unless they are working on the MasterTrack full time.
• Students may be able to enroll in a cohort up to two weeks following a published cohort date.
• Under no circumstances will someone be allowed to enter a course after week 3.

Students who are planning to pursue the MSW degree following course completion are highly recommended to submit an Eligibility Review Request and then fully apply to the MSW program prior to purchasing the MasterTrack certificate. Students only interested in the MasterTrack Certificate do not need to have their experience screened or apply to the MSW program.
