The USC Suzanne Dworak-Peck School of Social Work established the first social work doctoral program in the western United States in 1953. Today, we continue to welcome highly motivated, self-directed individuals interested in university research and teaching. Students admitted to the PhD program pursue an in-depth, customized course of study in an atmosphere of careful mentoring and respect for scholarship.
