Social Work

The Bachelor of Social Work (BSW) degree provides a liberal arts foundation with a concentration in social work theory and practice. The BSW program is based on an understanding of generalist practice that prepares students to engage in the person-in-environment concept and to utilize problem solving to intervene with diverse systems of various sizes. Every Social Work major is required to participate in a 450-hour agency-based field placement, as well as a corresponding classroom seminar.
