Program Description
Our Bachelor of Science degree prepares graduates for entry-level professional positions and admission to graduate school.
This program uses an anti-oppressive lens for all dimensions of diversity, with a focus on race, class, poverty, sexuality and gender, to inform the environmental context of generalist social work education and practice. Faculty, staff and students commit to building on a strong Liberal Arts education, an experiential and transformative learning process, and valuing evidence-based practice that incorporates the core values of the social work profession. We empower our students to think critically, analyze, and [actively] challenge systemic inequalities in the United States and world. This process will prepare professional generalist social workers to be change agents in a diverse world.
