BA/BS in Social Work

The Department of Social Work at Shu-Te University introduces social work as a helping profession that focuses on how people interact with their environment, supporting individuals, groups, families and communities. The page says the university offers the programme through a day-time four-year technical track and an evening two-year track. Course emphasis falls on child, youth and family social work, long-term care and disability social work, and shared professional courses designed around the social worker licensing examination and fieldwork. Students are encouraged to take double degrees or cross-department course sets. News on the site reports graduates passing the national social worker examination and entering graduate institutes, internship recruitment notices from city governments and hospitals, and community activities on active ageing. The department also invites students to combine study with double degrees or cross-department course sets.
