Students



The Group for the Advancement of Doctoral Education in Social Work (GADE) plays a crucial role in supporting social work doctoral students by cultivating a strong sense of community, providing professional development opportunities, and advocating for the unique needs of students. As an organization of social work doctoral program directors, GADE is committed to fostering an environment where both students and programs thrive.

Through its network, GADE offers valuable resources to program directors, enabling them to support academic success, enhance professional connections, and equip students with the tools to navigate the challenges of doctoral education.

We promote collaboration, growth, and resilience, ensuring that doctoral candidates not only excel academically but also grow personally and professionally throughout their academic journey.
