The Part-Time MSW Option on a regional campus provides the opportunity to enroll in The Ohio State University's nationally recognized and fully accredited MSW program with the convenience of being close to home. Through a cooperative agreement between the Ohio State's College of Social Work and the regional campuses, students are able to complete the Master of Social Work degree requirements. Regional campus students receive the same quality educational experience as their Columbus counterparts. Regional classes are taught by OSU College of Social Work faculty and community practitioners. The same course of study, syllabi, and texts are used on all campuses. A new cohort of students begins in the Summer quarter of each calendar year.
The Ohio State University College of Social Work's MSW program provides an educational experience that responds to the need for greater competency in diverse practice arenas. Students acquire knowledge and skills in foundation areas of social work focusing on research, welfare policies and programs, human behavior and the social environment, and human diversity, as well as advanced skills in clinical or social administration practice. Two field practicums are scheduled along with classroom courses during specified quarters of enrollment. Field practicum assignments close to the student's home community may be at social service agencies that meet the educational requirements to be certified as a qualified practicum site.
The Ohio State University at Mansfield now offers two options to earn a Master in Social Work Degree...the Regular Part-Time Program Option (which usually takes 13 quarters to complete the 91 credit hour program) and the Part-Time Advanced Standing Alternative Plan (ASAP) Program Option (which usually takes 8 quarters to complete the 60 credit hour program). Please Note: The ASAP Progrma option is open to qualified students who have earned a BSW degree.
While the regional campuses are located in rural settings throughout Ohio and retain a small-town atmosphere, they also offer close proximity to the main campus in Columbus. Regional campus students have access to all facilities and opportunities available to students on main campus while remaining near their work, home, and families. In addition, the regional campuses provide a full array of services for their students:
Each regional campus also offers a variety of courses that may be available to fulfill licensure requirements or that can be taken Graduate Non-Degree prior to admission to the program. Up to 10 hours of OSU non-degree course work may transfer into the program once a student is admitted. Contact any of the MSW Regional Program Offices for more information on these courses or information on the MSW Part-time Regional Campus options available at your campus of choice.
