USC School of Social Work
One of the nation's first Schools of Social Work, USC has always been a trailblazer. And this time in our history is no exception. Still one of the best social work graduate programs in the nation, USC is heralded by agency, policy and academic leaders for its rigorous career preparation. But you no longer need to live in Southern California to benefit. While the school now graduates nearly 40 percent of all social workers in California, with the launch of our full web-based Master of Social Work degree program (MSW@USC), we have become the first truly national program in the profession.

Our Mission
The mission of the USC School of Social Work is to improve the well-being of vulnerable individuals and communities, advance social and economic justice, and eradicate pressing societal problems in complex and culturally diverse urban environments throughout Southern California, the nation and the world. Our mission is achieved through value-driven, scholarly and creative social work education, research, and professional leadership.
