Binghamton University’s Department of Social Work gives you the skills to improve the lives of individuals, families, groups, organizations and communities.

Our undergraduate and graduate programs’ affordable tuition, rigorous academics and focus on practical experience offer students a great value for their money.

Our results

Binghamton University has done an excellent job preparing the next generation of social workers! Every year, our Master of Social Work graduates have some of the highest passage rates on the Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) exams in New York State. 

Many of our BSW graduates, through the Advanced Standing option, go on to earn an MSW in one year instead of the traditional two-year course of study. 

Program mission

Our mission is to prepare social workers for autonomous, knowledge-based, generalist and advanced generalist practice within an integrated community of scholars, practitioners and learners.

We help students acquire a broad base of knowledge and skills to address the needs of individuals, families, groups, organizations and communities.
