Minor in Social Work
Students who minor in Social Work learn a great deal about our society, its problems, its values, and its responses to needs. Students are better informed as citizens, and they are prepared to work intelligently to make our society better. The Social Work minor seeks to enhance student understanding of social policy and give students a basic understanding of social work practice. The Social Work minor, however, does NOT prepare students to be professional social workers or to seek state licensure as social workers.
