UW Global Health Summer Institute | Register now!

This summer the UW Department’s Global Health Summer Institute will be offering condensed courses that are open to both students and the public via either UW tuition (for credit) or a fee-per-course (non-credit) basis.  SSW students taking these courses must take it for UW credit to count it towards the MSW degree.  MSW students may take up to 3 of their elective credits out of department as long as the course is at the 500 level and somehow related to social work, which these courses would be. Register early as space is limited! For questions, or to register, please visit our website or contact Cole at gshi@uw.edu.

The courses range from 1-3 credits and are taught off the traditional schedule (so often daily, 4-6 hours/day for a week or two).
