This resource guide aims to provide doctoral students (both current and prospective), faculty and administrators with pertinent facts about the Columbia School of Social Work (CSSW) Doctoral Program. Although the guide focuses primarily on rules and regulations concerning degree requirements, it also includes hands-on information about the program.
This guide supplements and assumes knowledge of material in the current Columbia University Graduate School of Arts and Sciences (GSAS) bulletin, particularly with regard to policies that pertain to the university community at large. The goal herein is to concentrate more specifically on the Doctoral Program experience; as such we recommend that all those who work closely with the Doctoral Program read and familiarize themselves with the content of this guide.
