PhD Degrees in Social Sciences Social Work

After completing a program or course, professional social workers may have the education necessary to develop community programs, provide counseling and legal support for families, or advocate for childrenโs rights during divorce and custody cases.
Requirements for the PhD program often involve the student having already obtained a Masterโs degree. Additionally, a thesis or dissertation primarily consisting of original academic research must be submitted. In some countries, this work may even need to be defended in front of a panel.
