Program details

Overview

This accredited social work degree is a professional credential rather than a general arts degree. It emphasizes integrated practice built on an anti-racist foundation and prepares students for responsible, ethical entry-level generalist practice. Students study social welfare policy, human behavior, practice methods, diversity and social justice, and they spend three semesters in agency practicum placements under professional supervision, totaling 575 hours. The program has held national accreditation since 1981. It is offered on campus with hybrid elements.
