A Message from the Director
The School of Social Work is preparing a new generation of practitioners, researchers, and change agents through theory and practice opportunities to facilitate the collective welfare and wellbeing of all people and promote human rights and social justice.
We have distinguished ourselves through strong academics as well as a skills- oriented approach to social work practice.
A cornerstone of our program is our approach to teaching and learning through interactive and stimulating environments on campus and online.
Our unique post-BA Bachelor of Social Work (BSW) (Honours) program is available through full-time or part-time studies. This program provides students with a first-level professional Social Work degree. For more information about the BSW program, click here.
Our new Master of Social Work (MSW) program is available through part-time studies beginning in the fall of 2012 and through part-time or full-time studies beginning in the fall of 2013. For more information about the MSW program, click here.
The School of Social Work faculty are nationally and internationally known for their teaching, scholarship, contributions to the field of study and active participation. They are focused on agency-based social work practice, student education, and knowledge-building through research.
We invite you to explore our website and learn more about the school’s teaching and learning environment. The web site is organized to provide easy access to information about our various programs and activities, introduce you to the people who make up the school community, and link you to useful social work resources. We're only an e-mail or phone call away.
Sincerely,
