Graduate level electives from other departments may or may not be approved as a qualifying elective (referred to as an “alternative elective*”).

Choose from the courses below and ensure you meet the elective credit requirement of your program type.
To pursue an alternative elective, students must make a request in writing to the MSW Program Coordinator and Graduate Program Coordinator (GPC) assigned to their campus. The request should include the course number and description. Together, the program coordinators will make a determination to accept or deny the request.
