Minor in Social Work

The minor in social work provides students with knowledge about human behavior, systems-thinking, and organizational practice as well as skills to advocate for social justice and support individuals and communities. The policy and research courses include service-learning components, allowing students to apply concepts from the classroom into practice at community partner sites.
