Social Work

The Department of Social Work offers a Bachelor of Social Work (BSW) program which trains students for direct practice positions in social work and is in candidacy for accreditation by the Council on Social Work Education. The program has a multicultural focus, preparing graduates to work in both nonprofit and public agencies and to be proficient in serving diverse populations in urban communities. The mission of the BSW program is to graduate generalist practice-level, culturally responsive urban social workers in community mental health

Social work graduates are well prepared to attend to individual, family, group, and community needs caused by inequalities of class and identity, including race, ethnicity, gender, age, disability, sexual orientation, immigration status, religion, caste, and other forms of social injustice. Advocacy and social change to address these injustices form the core of the BSW program. Our vision is to create a cadre of diverse leaders to be catalysts for social change and transform oppressive systems in partnership with the communities we serve.
