Master of Social Work — Israel Block Program
Wurzweiler runs a unique program in Israel that enables social work graduates of the program to get licensed in both the United States and Israel. Students complete the program in just short of 2 years (6 semesters). They take classes in a concentrated block during 2 summers in NYC. This is in addition to 2 fall and 2 spring semesters of practicum and coursework in Israel. Upon returning to your home country, in this case Israel, practicum hours can be completed at a local agency.
Our faculty is as diverse as the program! Because of our partnership with Hebrew University in Jerusalem, some of our teachers are Israelis based in Israel. Others are New York-based faculty. And still others are faculty we have recruited from around the United States with distinguished expertise.
Social work requires a special type of nurturing. At Wurzweiler we know your name, we know your strengths, and we know where you want to grow. Making sure you feel supported by the staff and faculty through this process is a top priority.
