MSW Student Handbook

The handbook has been designed as a reference to assist students in understanding the social work degree program including its curriculum, policies, and procedures. Students are encouraged to refer to this handbook at various points in their academic career. It is organized as an overview of the School of Social Work, including its history and mission; the Code of Ethics to which the School subscribes; the specifics regarding the MSW program; and services and opportunities available to the MSW students.

While every effort is made to provide accurate and current information, the Indiana University School of Social Work reserves the right to change with notice, curricula, policies, courses, rules or other matters. The School attempts to make changes only as necessary and only to enhance and improve the educational experience.

IU School of Social WorkPartnerships

Indiana Child Welfare Education and Training Partnership

The Indiana University School of Social Work works in collaboration with the Indiana Department of Child Services to better protect children at risk of abuse and neglect. A key to this collaboration is the creation of the Child Welfare Education and Training Partnership. The Partnership is designed to provide high quality social work education and statewide training for public child welfare employees.

Center for Social Health & Well-being

The Center for Social Health and Well-being is to support and conduct research, evaluation and training programs, in consort with external partners, that can address human and social needs faced by individuals, organizations, communities, and societies.

National Child Welfare Workforce Initiative

Our aim is to help you to understand the Indiana Trauma-Informed Child Welfare Fellowship Program and programs associated with it. We are excited about the practice of child welfare in Indiana.

Institute for Juvenile Court and Corrections Research

Rather than relying solely on textbooks or lectures, faculty, students and researchers will be able to use IJCCR's video library for a unique firsthand experience that is second only to onsite training.
