The Loyola MSW at Carthage

The Loyola Master of Social Work (MSW) at Carthage program offers two paths to completion of the degree. Both degree tracks offer:
  • Classes at Carthage's Kenosha campus on the shores of Lake Michigan.
  • Classes that meet one evening and Saturday morning weekly.
  • Studying as part of a small cohort of professionals.
  • Accredited by the Council on Social Work Education (CSWE) and the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools.

The traditional program begins in April and takes 29 months to complete. Students with a Bachelor of Social Work degree from an accredited school can be admitted into the new Advanced Standing program, which begins in June. Depending on the student's preparatory studies and certification goals, the degree can be completed in 12 to 15 months.

Loyola University of Chicago's Graduate School of Social Work offers a clinical social work program with a comprehensive focus on Child & Family or Mental Health. In addition, a Wisconsin-certified program for school social workers is also offered as part of the children and family specialization. This program was established in 1914 at the Loyola University Chicago Water Tower campus and began in May 2001 at Carthage in Kenosha, Wisconsin.

  • The Loyola MSW at Carthage represents the best of both worlds: a large university's faculty and curriculum and a small college's service and responsiveness.
  • Particular emphasis is placed on developing one's ability to intervene on behalf of individuals, families, and small groups with the aims of strengthening, maintaining, and enhancing them.
  • Preparation for clinical practice also includes the development of knowledge and skill in the areas of case advocacy, social service advocacy, the assessment of community needs, and participation in the development and evaluation of clinically effective programs.
  • Field placement and instruction provide the knowledge and skills needed for effective practice with individuals, families, and small groups.
