At the Graduate School of Social Work (GSSW), we’re a family. That doesn’t change when you graduate. Even if you live far from campus, there are lots of ways to stay connected — continuing education and special events live-streamed from campus, following us on social media, recruiting students and more.
Attend events and continuing education workshops. Many of our events are accessible digitally, so you can join the conversation from wherever you reside!
Connect with GSSW and other alumni on social media. You can find us on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn and the University of Denver Pioneer Connect alumni networking community.
Become an adjunct instructor or field education partner, or share your experience as a guest lecturer in a classroom. You can provide clinical supervision to recent grads in your region, too.
Introduce your agency or organization to GSSW’s Field Education Program. After two years of practice, you may be able to supervise a current student in the field as well.
I work closely with all of you to identify, create and cultivate your engagement in order to build professional connections and lasting friendships.

How the AHH Certificate Program Prepared This Graduate for Her Master of Social Work
A continuing education certificate program like IHAC’s Animals and Human Health certificate can be a useful steppingstone before committing to a graduate degree program. Sarah Szuchman completed the AHH certificate in early 2025 prior to starting her Master of Social Work degree at the University of Denver’s Graduate School of Social Work. Sarah has had a lifelong passion for animals and the AHH certificate helped Sarah to see what could be possible with human-animal interactions in a professional setting.
Hosted by GSSW, the 2026 Western Colorado Health & Housing Summit focused on understanding the intersection of health, housing, and community well-being in the region’s rural communities.
Throughout her social work career in child welfare and K-12 education, alumna Sarie Patterson (MSW ’94) has worked to center justice in policy and practice.
University of Denver Graduate School of Social Work MSW alumnus John Mosley, Jr., helped shape history as a civil rights activist and Tuskegee Airmen pilot.
