The Bachelor of Social Work degree is founded on the principles of service. This includes social and economic justice, personal dignity and worth, the importance of human relationships, integrity, and competence. The social worker assists people in achieving an effective level of psychosocial functioning and effecting social change to improve the well being of everyone. The major combines a liberal arts education with preparation for entry-level generalist professional social work. Entrance into the Bachelor of Social Work program includes special requirements; talk to an advisor in the Arts and Sciences Advising Center for details. |
