Quality

Our MSW program is fully accredited by the Council on Social Work Education, the national accrediting body for professional social work programs. An accredited degree is essential for employment, licensure and certification. 

Diversity 

Our students and staff reflect the diversity of the surrounding region. Experience the benefit of learning in a community with diverse perspectives. UNCP is a historically Native American Serving Institution, Minority Serving Institution, and one of the most diverse universities in the nation. 

The mission of the Master of Social Work (MSW) program at the University of North Carolina at Pembroke is to prepare social workers to practice using an advanced generalist model. Program graduates are trained to practice in rural areas and with indigenous communities, including clinical and healthcare settings, using evidence-based practices. The program emphasizes practice within the guidelines of the NASW Code of Ethics. Graduates are prepared from a lens of anti-racism, diversity, equity, and inclusion to actively pursue social, economic, and environmental justice.
