Program overview
The Master of Social Work (M.S.S. – Maîtrise en service social) program offers advanced professional training designed to develop student competencies through two distinct completion options: a practical stream featuring a specialized internship with an essay, or a research stream featuring an independent thesis. Both pathways require mastery of theories, policies, research methods, and clinical/community practices tailored to chosen areas of specialization. The program prepares graduates to work across diverse regions with varied populations on complex social issues.
The program holds full accreditation from the Canadian Association for Social Work Education (CASWE-ACFTS), enabling graduates to gain direct entry into professional regulatory bodies/orders of social workers across Canadian provinces.
