In this process, students are admitted and classes are offered under the guidance of CSWE and \u00a0may sit for the LSW \u00a0licensing exam in the last semester of their MSW studies. The earliest possible date for accreditation is 2018. Accreditation is retro-active from the date Candidacy is granted.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Attaining Professional Licensure:<\/strong> Complete all academic requirements necessary to take the ASWB licensing examination for the LSW in NJ and LMSW in NY.<\/p>\n<p>The MSW Program will be offered as a full-time hybrid program two nights a week and a part-time hybrid program one night a week. Two classes meet 2 hours each night \u2013 Monday and Thursday \u2013 with 30 minutes of online work weekly. Students enrolled in full-time program will complete in two years; students enrolled in the part-time program will complete in 3 to 4\u00a0years. 1200 hours of field internship are required for the Two Year Program and 600 for the Advanced Standing Program.<\/p>\n<p>Program Mission:<\/p>\n<p>The mission of the Master of Social Work Program is to prepare competent, compassionate and research informed social work professionals to advocate for social and economic justice and human well-being, while honoring diversity and within the context of the social environment. An emphasis on caring \u00a0human relationships, and freedom from all forms of oppression, while supporting strengths, empowerment, and enhancing quality of life will be the focus of practice. \u00a0As advanced generalist practitioners, students will become effective leaders through planning and problem solving, multi-system and interdisciplinary collaboration, and excellence in service to individuals, families, groups, communities, and organizations, all from a global perspective. In line with the greater mission of Ramapo College, the MSW Program will emphasize individual attention to students and promote diversity, inclusiveness, sustainability, student engagement, and community involvement through interdisciplinary and experiential learning, and international and intercultural understanding.<\/p>\n<p>Program Goals:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;font-family: Calibri;font-size: medium\">The goals of the MSW program are derived from the program\u2019s mission as follows:<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;font-family: Calibri;font-size: medium\">To prepare competent social work professionals for advanced generalist practice with individuals, families, groups, organizations, and communities in an ever-changing and diverse context, locally and internationally;<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;font-family: Calibri;font-size: medium\">To educate social workers effectively with the knowledge, values, and skills of the profession at the advanced practice level;<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;font-family: Calibri;font-size: medium\">To advance social justice by preparing leaders to effectively advocate for the development of social policies and social service delivery systems that improve the well-being of client systems; and<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;font-family: Calibri;font-size: medium\">To prepare social workers who are life-long-learners and who will advocate, personally and professionally, for the alleviation and eradication of social problems and the promotion of global social, economic, and environmental sustainability.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Preparation of students for advanced generalist practice is based on a person-in-environment perspective that is global and dynamic, respect for human diversity, advocacy for human rights, a strengths perspective, and scientific inquiry. The program\u2019s aim is to equip students for practice in an ever-changing world fraught with infinite variation and persistent obstacles to justice. Excellent advanced generalist practice results from understanding and acknowledging the transitory nature of human interaction and the incremental development of services necessary to respond with a client-centered approach, whether that client is an individual, family, group, community, or organization.<\/p>\n<p>The central means to accomplish the MSW Program\u2019s mission and goals is through an integrated learning process that values classroom and field learning equally.\u00a0 The classroom integrates on-site learning in agency field internships with knowledge, values, and skills. Field internships are arranged through the Social Work Office of Field Education. Each student completes 600 hours of field internship per year\u00a0in qualified agencies under qualified field instructors to graduate.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<div class=\"collapsableContent\" tabindex=\"0\"><div class=\"collapsableTitle\"><span class=\"fa-stack\"><i class=\"fa fa-circle fa-stack-2x\"><\/i><i class=\"fa fa-chevron-down fa-stack-1x fa-inverse\"><\/i><i class=\"fa fa-chevron-up fa-stack-1x fa-inverse\"><\/i><\/span>Outcomes for the Program<\/div><div class=\"c_content\">\n<p><strong>Competency 1:<\/strong> Identify as a professional social worker and conduct oneself accordingly.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Competency 2:<\/strong> Apply social work ethical principles to guide professional practice.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Competency 3:<\/strong> Apply critical thinking to inform and communicate professional judgments.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Competency 4:<\/strong> Engage in diversity and difference in practice.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Competency 5:<\/strong> Advance human rights and social, economic, and environmental justice.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Competency 6:<\/strong> Engage in research informed practice and practice informed research.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Competency 7:<\/strong> Apply knowledge of human behavior and the social environment.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Competency 8:<\/strong> Engage in policy practice to advance social and economic well-being and to deliver effective social work services.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Competency 9:<\/strong> Respond to context that shape practice.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Competency 10:<\/strong> Engage, assess, intervene, and evaluate with individuals, families, groups, organizations, and communities.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"collapsableContent\" tabindex=\"0\"><div class=\"collapsableTitle\"><span class=\"fa-stack\"><i class=\"fa fa-circle fa-stack-2x\"><\/i><i class=\"fa fa-chevron-down fa-stack-1x fa-inverse\"><\/i><i class=\"fa fa-chevron-up fa-stack-1x fa-inverse\"><\/i><\/span>Requirements of the MSW Program<\/div><div class=\"c_content\">\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;font-family: Calibri;font-size: medium\">The MSW Degree requires 64 credit hours to complete.
