The School of Social Work curriculum is organized around eight foundation areas of study: Human behavior and the Social Environment, Social Welfare Policy and Services, Social Work Practice, Social Work Research, Field Internship, Social Work Values and Ethics, Diversity, Social and Economic Justice, and Populations-at-Risk. These nine areas build upon a liberal arts base to provide social work know- ledge, values, skills, and supervised experience in generalist practice. These areas of study provide social work students with the necessary competencies to perform at the entry level of generalist social work practice. The curriculum consists of general education requirements, pre-requisites in the liberal arts and sciences, social work core (classroom and field) courses, and social work and social science electives.
