Degree Requirements

The Juris Doctor/Master of Social Work is a joint degree which is conferred by both the Syracuse University College of Law and the Syracuse University School of Social Work. Students enrolled in this program may obtain their J.D. and M.S.W. in substantially less time than would be necessary if both programs were separately pursued.

Questions and general inquiries should be directed to Adrienne Renfroe, LMSW, Coordinator of Graduate Admissions, 419 Sims Hall (443-1443; alrenfro@syr.edu). Students with general questions and inquiries concerning procedures regarding joint degrees should contact Keri Foster, Associate Director for Student Life, College of Law, Suite 444 (443-1146; kdfoster@syr.edu).
