The Same Fordham Education, Delivered Online
OnlineMSW@Fordham, the online MSW program from Fordham University, offers the same advanced integrated practice curriculum taught by the same faculty as the on-campus program. As a student, you’ll have the opportunity to gain diverse perspectives from peers and faculty, becoming part of the Fordham community without having to relocate.
Program Overview
We have designed the online MSW program with multiple plans of study so you can choose the one that best fits your educational and professional background as well as your schedule. Along with a traditional track, we have an advanced standing track for those students who completed a bachelor’s degree in social work. Both options include four areas of focus:
- Individuals and Families
- Organizations and Community
- Evaluation
- Policy Practice and Advocacy
Field Experience Near Your Community
A critical part of a social work education, field education will give you the experience and confidence you need to feel comfortable serving clients after graduation.
As an OnlineMSW@Fordham student, you will work with a dedicated placement specialist who will help identify partner sites near your area. We partner with agencies across the country that share our core values and meet our high standards for practice.
Traditional MSW students will complete 1,200 total field education hours at two placement sites.
Advanced standing MSW students complete 600 total field education hours at one placement site.
