The Jane Addams College of Social Work is dedicated to providing excellent academic programs that prepare competent and effective social work professionals  committed to practice with poor and oppressed populations, and who will work to alleviate poverty, oppression, and discrimination. The College offers the Master of Social Work (MSW) degree, a Certificate in Evidence-Based Mental Health Practice with Children, and the Doctor of Philosophy in Social Work (PhD) degree. The MSW program prepares students for advanced social work practice in four concentrations: mental health, child and family services, community health and urban development, and school social work practice. The Certificate in Evidence-Based Mental Health Practice with Children prepares students with advanced training in evidence-based practice with this targeted population. The doctoral program is designed for individuals planning careers in social work education, research, or administration. In June 2004 the Council on Social Work Education's Commission on Accreditation voted to reaccredit the MSW program until 2012.
