The Bachelor of Social Work
degree program is offered through the College of Behavioral and Health Sciences
at MTSU. Social workers promote human and community well-being; their courses
focus on developing competent, ethical professionals with the knowledge,
values, and skills for effective practice with individuals, families, groups,
agencies, and communities. Guided by an awareness of individuals and their
environment, a global perspective, respect for human diversity, and knowledge
based on scientific inquiry, social work's purpose is realized through its
quest for social and economic justice, the prevention of conditions that limit
human rights, the elimination of poverty, and the enhancement of the quality of
life for all persons. The major in Social Work leads to a Bachelor of Social
Work (B.S.W.) degree which is accredited by the Council on Social Work
Education. The program's primary objective is to prepare the student for
beginning professional practice in social work. It also provides a foundation
for students planning to pursue graduate study in social work.
