CAREERS:
Social workers graduating from the bachelor’s
program are prepared to enter the professional
work place in a variety of human service
settings, including public and private agencies,
hospitals, clinics, schools, nursing homes,
police departments, juvenile and adult
correctional systems, and a wide range of
other interesting arenas. Their clientele may
be children, women, families, the elderly, or
those mentally ill or developmentally disabled,
delinquent or criminal, homeless, substance
addicted, or troubled with other personal or
social issues. The social work profession is
particularly committed to helping those
members of society who are vulnerable,
oppressed, and living in poverty. Because the
social work discipline focuses on the person in
his or her environment, the variety of human
problems encountered by social workers is
very diverse. The program also prepares
students for graduate study in social work or
related professions.
