Arizona State University (ASU) Online MSW Program

Arizona State University’s (ASU) School of Social Work offers an entirely online MSW program with a concentration in Advanced Generalist studies. The program, which currently only offers a traditional standing track, requires the completion of 60 credits and 960 hours of field practicum. Students can complete the program through two years of full-time study or three years of part-time study. The 60 credits required for graduation are broken down into 24 credits of Foundation classes, 18 credits of Advanced classes, 6 credits of Professional Training, and 12 credits of clinical practicum.

Classes are delivered primarily in an asynchronous format, which enables students to view lectures and review course material on their own time; however, the program’s two Professional Training seminars incorporate synchronous elements to allow for real-time student-instructor interaction.

Field practicum hours are divided into two 480-hour field practicums, one that students complete during their Foundation coursework, and one that they complete during their Advanced coursework. Students work with the School of Social Work’s Field Education Office to find field practicum assignments within their geographic region, and which align with CSWE standards.

Arizona State University’s School of Social Work is accredited by the Council on Social Work Education (CSWE) and the university is accredited by the North Central Association Higher Learning Commission.
