Ohio University
Graduate Catalog
Social Work
The Department of Social Work does not offer an advanced degree
program. However, the department offers some graduate courses for
students interested in pursuing graduate studies in social work. The
courses have been developed in cooperation with the College of Social
Work at Ohio State University. Thus, credit from these courses may
transfer to the College of Social Work if you are admitted to its
graduate program. Alternatively, the courses also may be used to
count toward clock hours needed for social work relicensing in Ohio.
For admission to any one of the courses, you must be admitted to a
graduate program. If you are not in a graduate program, you may seek
admission to the sociology graduate program with nondegree
status.
