Required Courses for Social Work - Major
Social Work Majors are required to complete the following courses. Some
of these courses fulfill the college’s liberal studies core
requirements at the same time that they meet Social Work major
requirements.
Senior Experience for Social Work
Senior Integrative Seminar (SWK 452), concurrent with the field practicum (SWK 484), strengthens the integration of theory and practice by emphasizing the linkages between the liberal arts and all components of the social work curriculum and practice. It further sharpens the student’s ability to question and to think critically; to explore personal, professional and cultural values as well as ethical issues; to prepare for productive contributions to the profession and society; and to engage in life-long learning.
The senior electronic portfolio (SWK 499) assesses the student in the required content areas in social work, allows for further opportunities for linkages with the liberal arts, and provides outcome assessment information for the social work faculty.
