Ringkasan program

This program prepares students for culturally competent generalist social work practice with individuals, families, small groups, organizations, and communities; to provide students with a base for continuing graduate education in social work and for lifelong learning; and to prepare students for active engagement with issues of social justice, oppression, and social welfare in local, state, regional, national, and global goals. The bachelor of arts program is designed to be consistent with the 2008 CSWE Educational Policy Statement competencies and practice behaviors. The program draws on a liberal arts perspective; social and behavioral science theory; social research; social policy development, analysis, and implementation; culturally competent intervention and prevention approaches in working with individuals, families, small groups, organizations, and communities; social integration; multiple systems assessment and evaluation; and knowledge pertaining to diversity. Consistent with CSWE standards, the program views dimensions of diversity as intersections of multiple factors, including age, class, color, culture, disability, ethnicity, gender, gender-identity and expression, immigration status, political ideology, race, religion, sex, and sexual orientation. Students learn that, as a consequence of difference, a person's life experiences may include oppression, poverty, marginalization, and alienation as well as privilege, power, and acclaim. Knowledge and practice in social work values and ethics is also an integral part of students' education. Knowledge and skill related to the evaluation of practice are integrated throughout the curriculum, beginning in 042:022 Introduction to Social Work, continuing through practice and research courses, and culminating in self-evaluation of practice exercise in a field seminar.
