Program Overview

Social workers can be found in schools, hospitals, police departments, public libraries, government offices, courtrooms — in short, anywhere people are in need of help. Social workers work with individuals and families facing challenges including poverty, physical and mental health issues, addiction, and family problems, providing clinical and case management services. Others go on in careers as lobbyists, policy analysts, community activists, or international relief groups.

Our curriculum is built around concepts of empowerment and experiential learning, with a focus on discovering individual strengths to ultimately prepare students to work as beginning generalist social workers in a range of settings, with a broad range of clients. Students will take a mix of courses in history, psychology, sociology, and social work, as well as independent studies, internships, practicum experience and the chance to do research with faculty. Minors can be added in relevant academic areas such as psychology, sociology, or Vincentian poverty studies.

Students have opportunities to complete service hours for the Levesque Institute for Civic Engagement on campus, and work with the Homeless Outreach Project to combat homelessness in our area, and within the Rose Bente Lee Ostapenko Center for Race, Equality and Mission.

Graduates of NU’s social work program will be prepared and empowered to be successful whether going on to complete master’s level degrees, or as they begin working in the field right away.
