MSW in Social Work

The School of Social Work at Ryerson is a leader in the field of social work education through its integration and study of anti-oppression, marginalization and critical approaches to practice. We draw on critical analyses of socio-economic inequalities and processes of marginalization to understand how people become users of social services. You will learn to critically interpret and reflect on power relations in social work in order to promote social justice and transform practice. This perspective is relevant to all major fields of social work, including practice within child welfare settings, school boards, clinical and community programs, and government institutions.
