The BSW program prepares students to be generalist social work practitioners, focusing on advocacy, referrals, case management and problem-solving functions with individuals, groups, families, organizations and the community.

The BA program in community advocacy and social policy focuses on advocacy strategies through an in-depth exploration, analysis and comparison of social service systems and policies from an empowerment perspective.

The professional program leading to the MSW degree prepares social workers for advanced professional social work practice. This program has multiple modalities and options to meet the needs of a diverse student-body.

The PhD program in social work trains future social work scholars and social work professionals engaged in research, teaching and service. This program offers students opportunities to be actively involved in both research and teaching.
