WMU began offering social work education in the 1940s with courses offered through the Department of Sociology. The School of Social Work was formally established in 1969. We continue to offer the BSW and MSW today, as well as an undergraduate minor in social work.
The MSW program was first accredited by the Council on Social Work Education in 1969 and is currently accredited through 2032. The BSW program was first accredited in 1975 and is also accredited through 2032.
