BA/BS in Social Work

The Bachelor of Social Work prepares generalist social workers who want to improve others' wellbeing. Students learn to work with clients through engagement, assessment and intervention to raise quality of life and advance social justice. The program is limited access, so applicants must apply and be accepted. Learners can add certificates and minors to their studies. The curriculum teaches current social work theory and applies it in agencies serving healthcare, schools, child welfare and criminal justice. Field education is central to the degree. An internship lets students apply and integrate what they learn in class. The School of Social Work belongs to the health college. The program is offered through the Health Professions and Sciences college.
