For Master's Students

Your career planning should begin the day you're admitted to the Crown Family School. We have our own Office of Career that offers personalized student resources, training workshops and networking events.

The Crown Family School is one of the few graduate schools of social work with its own Office of Career and Leadership Development, and we encourage you to think of career preparation as an integral part of the curriculum. We will work with you to match your education, experience, and aspirations with rewarding work in a growing number of fields.

Soon after starting your program, read through the entire Career and Leadership section of the website as it will help you to get started on career planning.
