Program Requirements

The social work minor is intended only for students who have previously been admitted to the Bachelor of Social Work (BSW) Program but did not complete their degree. This minor consists of 18 credits and includes the following courses: SOWK 1301  and 15 credits from the following courses: SOWK 3302 , SOWK 3303 , SOWK 3304 , SOWK 3313 , SOWK 3314 , SOWK 3322 , SOWK 3331 , and SOWK 3381 . In order to minor in social work, students must have been admitted to the BSW Program, have successfully completed any course they wish to count towards the minor with a grade of C or above and have a 2.5 GPA in all social work courses. It should be noted that the Council on Social Work Education, the accrediting body for social work education, does not recognize a minor in social work. Consequently, no professional privileges or practice rights will stem from the minor in social work and the students who minor in it will not graduate with the BSW degree.
