Lourdes University and Saint Louis University
collaborate to offer a MSW program
Applications now being accepted for Fall 2015 cohort
The Ohio Board of Regents has approved the collaboration of Lourdes
University and Saint Louis University to offer a Master of Social Work
(MSW) degree program at Lourdes. Applications for the inaugural program
are currently being accepted. The first cohort is scheduled for this fall.
"Lourdes and Saint Louis University have partnered to offer a MSW that
aligns with the Franciscan and Jesuit mission of serving humankind with
compassion. The program also allows professionals in this region to
pursue their degree at a private accredited institution," says Lourdes Social
Work Chair, Terry Keller, A.B.D., M.S.W., M.B.A., L.M.S.W., A.C.S.W.
The MSW program has two tracks - one for graduates of an accredited
bachelor's degree program in social work and one for those who have
achieved their bachelor's degree in other disciplines. "St. Louis University
is pleased to join Lourdes in offering the MSW to individuals and
practitioners in northwest Ohio and southeast Michigan," adds Donald
Linhorst, PhD, MSW, Interim Dean, Professor, Director of the School of
Social Work, Saint Louis University.
Lourdes University launched its social work baccalaureate program in
1984. First accredited by the Council on Social Work Education (CSWE) in
1993, the program has been accredited through 2021. The Bachelor of
Arts in social work degree program provides the knowledge, values and
skills necessary for students to engage in generalist social work practice.
As social work majors, students learn how to view ethnic, sexual, racial
identity and differing abilities from a culturally competent, strengths-based
perspective. Quality field education requirements allow students to choose
3
from a variety of sites including social service agencies, domestic relations
court, hospitals and other health care organizations.
To learn more about the Bachelor of Arts in social work degree
program, visit www.lourdes.edu/socialwork, email lcadmits@lourdes.edu

Rooted in the Catholic Franciscan tradition, Lourdes University offers
baccalaureate degrees in more than 30 academic majors as well as
graduate degrees in business, education, liberal studies, nursing,
organizational leadership, and theology. Community outreach programs
include the Appold Planetarium, the Center for Science Education & the
Environment, and Lifelong Learning. A member of the National Association
of Intercollegiate Athletics, Lourdes students can also compete in a variety
of men's and women's sports. Named a "Best in the Midwest" college by
