Courses in the
social work curriculum are provided in the areas of human
behavior and the social environment, social welfare policy and
services, social research, social work practice and field
practicum. Learning takes place in the classroom and in
approved agency settings under supervision. Early in the
curriculum students learn about social agencies and the roles of
social service providers through a volunteer placement for 45
clock hours in an approved agency required for a social work
class, Introduction to Social Work Practice (SW 222). Courses
in the major must be taken in sequence because knowledge in
higher level courses is built on the mastery of information in
previous courses.
After
completion of the foundation courses, students
MUST
complete the
admission to the program
form and submit it by October 31st
for the upcoming Spring Semester, and March 15th for the
upcoming Fall Semester. Late or incomplete applications
will not be accepted!
