The MSW programmes are offered in two different specializations viz Human Resource Development and Management (HRDM) and Clinical and Community Practice (CCP). The MSW Programme has been consistently ranked in the top ten, amongst Social Work Schools in the country in surveys conducted by reputed magazines like India Today, Outlook to name a few.

The Department of Sociology and Social Work at the University has ensured the holistic development of the students through a mix of classroom and experiential learning. Young people involved in social work tend to become more socially aware and responsible. Today, Social Work profession has come to flourish and offers more than just compulsory community hours. It allows a deeper understanding of systemic problems and a chance to bring about changes in society. The MSW programme is structured such that students are required to do a mandatory two month full time internship in industries / NGOs / hospitals etc during their first and second year where they can apply their academic learning and also gain a firsthand experience of working in different sectors.

Campus placements has been one of the reasons for MSW being a much sought after programme in the University. The students have secured jobs in different sectors like corporates, NGO’s, Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) profiles, counselling centres, schools, hospitals to name a few. Some of the regular recruitment partners include Vedanta Ltd, Titan Industries, Schneider Electric, BOSCH, Tata Power, Reliance Jio, Accenture, Social Axiom Foundation etc. The job profiles offered include HR Officer, Management Trainee HR, Labor Welfare Executive, CSR Executive, Programme Coordinator, Counsellor to name a few.

Benjamin Franklin once said, "Without continual growth and progress, such words as improvement, achievement and success have no meaning". It is in the presence of a dynamic and progressive environment such continual growth and progress deem possible. This is exactly the framework the department and the placement office

adopted to create vital snippets of learning experience throughout our last two semesters. Acing Aptitude tests, Mock Group Discussions and mock personal Interviews became part of our day to day interactions as we awaited for an opportunity to establish our substantial skills and knowledge. One to one interactions with the faculty members and mentoring emerged as places where we received comprehensive feedback and constructive criticism. Overall, as we look back at the preparation time, it is notable to mention that all those sessions organized by placement office and CAPS which may have appeared time consuming then, in hindsight were the building blocks to help us achieve our dreams.

    El departamento de sociología y trabajo social de la universidad ha garantizado el desarrollo integral de los estudiantes mediante una combinación de aprendizaje en sala de clases y aprendizaje experiencial. Los jóvenes que participan en trabajo social suelen adquirir mayor conciencia social y responsabilidad. Es evidente que has hecho mucho trabajo de excavación y destilación para crear tu obra.
