1. Speech Pathologist
Annual Average Salary: $73,000
And, the highest paying job with a master’s degree in social work is a job of a speech pathologist. While speech-language pathology (SLP) is a slightly different path from social work, it works closely with social workers because of the nature of both professions’ clients. MSW holders who take up a course in SLP will have the advantage of knowing how to handle their clients who have speech difficulties. With both an MSW and SLP certifications, one can expect for the annual salary to make up for more than the education necessary to get the position.
