Social work addresses the needs of individuals, families, groups and communities.
The core values of the profession are service, social justice, dignity and worth of the individual, importance of human relationships, integrity and competence. If you care about people and want to make a difference, social work may be the major for you. The College of St. Scholastica's Social Work Program embraces the mission of the social work profession in the context of the college's Benedictine tradition. Because this is an accredited undergraduate program, our graduates also enter most MSW programs with advanced standing. The Social Work Program will provide students with the analytical and substantive knowledge essential for beginning generalist social work practice.
