The Silver School of Social Work provides a rich environment for the education of professional social workers, offering programs at the undergraduate*, master's*, and doctoral level. The School also serves as a major postgraduate training center through which hundreds of area social workers deepen their professional knowledge and skills each year. Through its research centers and other projects, the School is a key source of scholarly research and publications directed at improving the practice of social work, evaluating social service and mental health programs, and developing new alternatives for meeting the needs of under-served populations. With the Mt. Sinai School of Medicine, the School supports the website Information for Practice, a resource for social work professionals around the world.
The School offers MSW education on four metro area campuses:
- NYU on Washington Square
- NYU at Sarah Lawrence College
- NYU at the College of Staten Island
- NYU at St. Thomas Aquinas College
*Fully accredited by the Council on Social Work Education.
