Online PhD in Social Work ranked among nation's best

OLLU's online PhD program in Social Work has been ranked No. 8 in the U.S. for 2024, according to Forbes Advisor.

Forbes Advisor cited the program's flexibility, private school setting and courses in decolonized pedagogy and mixed methods research.

"The four-year, online Ph.D. in social work from Our Lady of the Lake University's Worden School of Social Work focuses on serving students from underrepresented backgrounds who plan to work full time while pursuing their doctoral degree," Forbes Advisor wrote. "Ph.D. students can pursue paid teaching assistantships with the school's B.S.W. and M.S.W. programs and gain university-level teaching experience."

No other online PhD Social Work program in Texas made the Forbes Advisor Top 10 list for 2024.
