Hii,

An MSW is a degree course typically takes 1-2 years to complete.

Those who receive this advanced social work degree may work in the medical, mental health, and education fields, providing support as therapists, healthcare social workers, school social workers, and clinical social workers.

Once candidates obtain their MSW degree from IGNOU The Indira Gandhi National Open University, they can avail job opportunities in both public as well as private sectors.

Opportunities in government sector are mainly in community development projects related to education, health, rural development, child welfare, women rights, etc

Admission to the MSW program is on the basis of candidates performance in the entrance examination which at times is followed by a personal interview.

Some of the topics included in the entrance test are general awareness, analytical ability, language comprehension and awareness of socio-political issues.

Hope this will help you,

All the very best!!

Hello aspirant!!

I wouldn't suggest you to go for it. My friend got admitted in 2015 batch of MSW, but later he dropped out.

Manipal is known for B.tech and MBBS. MSW faculty is okay. They don't have placements and also you will not get the exposure which you can get in other specialised colleges of MSW.

If you're really interested in development sector then I would suggest you to take a year gap prepare for TISS, DU, JAMIA, Nirmala niketan etc. These are the top colleges for MSW.

Meanwhile you can do internship, volunteering work. This will help you with your interview as well as SOP.

Hope this was helpful.

All the best.
