About Pre-Social Work
Students can develop the knowledge they need to make informed decisions when improving the lives of individuals and creating positive lasting changes in society. Students can prepare for a career promoting physical and mental health through prevention, outreach, community efforts and public administration.
The Human Services Concentration was established in 1976 to provide students with an experience that allows them to apply their academic experiences in applied helping professional settings. They will pursue an interdisciplinary program of study designed to prepare them for a career in a helping field.
Students will take courses in four different areas of competence–client populations, health, organizational structures and public policy and diversity in human services–and learn about underrepresented populations, administration and public policy, ethics and practice. Then, they will have the opportunity to start doing the work of improving lives–all before they graduate.
Students will learn the foundations of human services, including its philosophy, methods and applications, and examine the values that animate a career in a helping field. They will take courses from a range of disciplines and departments–communications studies, psychology, sociology, economics and management, kinesiology, philosophy, religious studies and education–creating a pathway that compliments their unique interests and career goals.
Students will apply all they have learned to an internship in the field of human services.
