Suggested Program of Study

The Suggested Program of Study is designed for students to complete the Bachelor of Social Work (BSW) in four years.  Our experienced faculty provides a supportive learning environment as students learn skills to become compassionate, knowledgeable and conscientious social workers.

Students take general education courses and an Introduction to Social Work course in the first year of the program.  In the second year, students continue taking general education courses and also have two social work classes each semester.  During the third year, students delve deeper into the social work content and continue the general education requirements.  The fourth year is the time to finish up any general education requirements and to begin your social work journey in the field by working with agencies; locally, nationally, or internationally. 

Suggested Program of Study for Social Work Majors

At the end of the program, students will graduate with the BSW degree.  Many will find professional opportunities in social work agencies.  Others will continue their education and will be qualified to complete their masters program in one year or less.
