Welcome
The Social Work Department offers the Bachelor of Social Work, accredited by the Council on Social Work Education, the national accrediting body for undergraduate and master’s level social work education.
Our social work curriculum is offered in three formats: Day and Evening Programs on Main Campus, and an Accelerated Program at the Montgomery County Campus in Plymouth Meeting, PA.
The department  prepares competent entry-level generalist social workers for practice, with an emphasis on service in the urban community. These practitioners integrate the Lasallian values of respect for the individual and a commitment to social and economic justice with the theory, skills, and values of the social work profession.
The department challenges students to examine issues of human diversity, vulnerable populations, and social injustices so that students will become agents of social change.
The department also encourages students to undertake an exploration of self as a means of understanding and incorporating the values of the profession. The BSW degree prepares students for practice in the social services and related fields and for graduate study.
