Our Programs #
IU’s multifaceted MSW curriculum is designed to help students master professional practice through foundational knowledge, clinical and community practice, research and evaluation, and specialized focus in one of three areas: health, mental health and addictions, and school social work.
Experiential learning sharpens skills, fuels interests #
We work one-on-one with students to design practicum experiences that match your personal interests and career goals. Offering a wide range of experiential learning options, our program has partnerships with more than XX community-based organizations in the region.
We offer a large variety of field experiences with opportunities in Indiana, Illinois and Michigan. Practicum placement is very individualized. We meet with students to learn about their interests to try and find the best possible match.
