These 34 credits include a number of required courses, six credits of electives, and three total semesters that will involve field placement (consecutive semesters).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-bsw-degrees-prior-to-2017\">BSW degrees prior to 2017<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If your BSW was earned more than seven years ago (prior to 2017) then you are required to satisfy the MSW professional foundation curriculum prior to beginning the advanced curriculum. Refer to the section of information and requirements for new admits without a BSW.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-full-time-students\">Full-time students<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If your intention is to be a full-time student, you can move through the MSW program in as little time as three semesters (fall, spring and summer) at a <em>maximum<\/em> load each semester (field plus three classroom courses a semester). <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sometimes full-time students extend it out by a semester, and take the <em>minimum<\/em> full-time course load for four semesters (fall, spring, summer, fall). This would be field and two classroom courses for three consecutive semesters, plus one semester with just three classroom classes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-part-time-students\">Part-time students<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you choose to be a part-time student, you will generally be taking two courses a semester. During the three consecutive semesters you do field, you would be taking one additional classroom course. The estimated time to complete the 34 credits of the MSW degree for a part-time student is approximately two years, including summer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-field-placement\">Field placement<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you plan to be a full-time student, you will likely want to start field placement right away in the fall semester. In order for the Field Department to begin the process of assisting you to find a field placement for fall, you will need to apply for field as soon as possible, but no later than the fall field application deadline of May 15.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Students interested in School Social Work or a placement at the VA Medical Center must submit their field applications as soon as possible in order to ensure placement<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Please see the <a href=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/socialwelfare\/social-work-field-program\/\">Social Work Field Department<\/a> web pages for full application instructions and details. Applying for field will also be discussed at new MSW student orientation sessions, but don\u2019t wait to attend one to begin your field application.

Students needing to satisfy both professional foundation and advanced curriculum course work will need to satisfy 58 credits total to earn the MSW degree. The professional foundation courses contain the first 24 credits, and the advanced curriculum contains the final 34 credits towards the 58 credits of the degree. These 58 credits will include 14 total credits of field placement (internship) completed across four semesters. <strong>&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-full-time-students-0\">Full-time students<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If your intention is to be a full-time student, you can move through the MSW program in about two years, including summer(s). Students who can take on a <em>maximum<\/em> full-time load each semester (four courses each semester) can start the program in fall and complete the program in the second year\u2019s spring semester. Sometimes full-time students extend out to finishing their degree in the second year\u2019s summer semester by taking the <em>minimum<\/em> full-time course load (three courses each semester). <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-part-time-students-0\">Part-time students<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you choose to be a part-time student, you will generally be taking two courses a semester. During the semesters in which you are in field placement, you would be taking one additional classroom course. The estimated time to complete the 58 credits of the MSW degree for a part-time student is approximately four years (including summer semesters). <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-field-placement-for-full-time-students\">Field placement for full-time students<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you plan to be a full-time student, you will not start field placement right away. You will have all classroom courses for your first semester. You will likely be wanting to start field in your spring (second) semester<em>. In order to do this you will want to be sure that you satisfy foundation course 708 in the fall (first semester)<\/em>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Most students will satisfy this course by taking it in fall. A few students may be exempt from the course due to having had a similar course in their undergraduate studies (see exemptions).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-field-placement-for-part-time-students\">Field placement for part-time students<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you plan to be a part-time student, field placement will not be an immediate scheduling consideration. In fact, you may be able to schedule your first year or two with just classroom courses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-exemptions\">Exemptions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Sometimes students can exempt from or waive out of certain professional foundation curriculum classes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-exemptions-based-on-previous-course-work\">Exemptions: Based on previous course work<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"uwm-c-link--external\">If a student has had significantly similar course content to the professional foundation courses in their undergraduate background and those similar courses were taken within five years of the student starting the MSW program, they may apply for exemption from the corresponding professional foundation course(s). When applying for exemption, a student must supply evidence of the previous course work taken through a copy of a syllabus or a course description (syllabus preferred) of the previous course(s) that the student believes fits the same course content.

Based on the research methods and statistics courses the student completed, many psychology majors can be exempted from our Professional Foundation 662 Methods of Social Welfare Research.
