Social Work

The MA Social Work offers a varied curriculum which provides a firm grounding in the knowledge, skills and values which social workers will require in practice. The goals of the program are to prepare students for employment in public and private social services in home and community based settings such as public welfare, child welfare, health, mental health, elderly services, and corrections; to prepare students for informed community participation in social welfare issues; and to provide a base for graduate study in social work or allied professions.
