Accreditation

The undergraduate program in Social Work, offering a Bachelors of Science in Social Work (BSSW) degree, has been accredited since 1974, when undergraduate accreditation first began.  The MSW program was established in 1989 and was fully accredited early in 1993.

The Department of Social Work was re-accredited by the Council on Social Work Education’s Commission on Accreditation in January 2007.  The Bachelor of Science in Social Work and Master of Social Work programs were re-accredited for eight years, ending February 2014.   Please click here for the official document.  The department continues to update its curriculum to adhere to revised standards established by the Commission on Accreditation of the Council on Social Work Education.  For more information about accreditation, please visit the CSWE website.
