A Master’s degree in Social Work gives access to doctoral studies. This third cycle is offered by UAS Faculties of Social Work in collaboration with universities in Switzerland and abroad. Admission is, in general, subject to various specific conditions – for instance, a certain number of ECTS credits, which differ from case to case, will have to be caught up.
Those in charge at the various Universities of Applied Sciences offer individual consultations.
