{{short description|Master's degree in the field of social work}} The '''Master of Social Work''' ('''MSW''') is a [[master's degree]] in the field of [[social work]]. It is a professional degree with specializations compared to [[Bachelor of Social Work]] (BSW). MSW promotes macro-, mezzo- and micro-aspects of professional social work practice, whereas the BSW focuses more on direct social work practices in community, hospitals ([[Patient#Outpatients and inpatients|outpatient and inpatient]] services) and other fields of social services. In some countries, such as Australia, the United Kingdom and Hong Kong SAR, some MSW degrees are considered equivalent to BSW qualifications as a qualifying degree.
