JD/MSW Profiles

Our JD/MSW program was one of the first of its kind in Canada when it launched at the Faculty of Law in 1991. It's a unique program mix of legal, mediation and negotiation skills that has led graduates to careers in family law, to innovative social justice positions, and beyond - even to the high-powered world of corporate law. If you've ever wondered what you can do with a JD/MSW degree, keep an open mind - and take a look at these inspiring alumni profiles.
