Social Work
The Department of Social Work, building on the Mission of the University, and reflecting the essence of its Dominican tradition, develops ethical, competent and self-aware professionals. Molloy's program fosters the development of generalist practitioners who challenge social injustice and serve as change agents on behalf of all client systems. Students are prepared for value-centered, professional social work practice within and increasingly diverse, multi-cultural society. The faculty promotes the application of knowledge and skills through an interactive educational experience, fostering critical thinking, practice evaluation and commitment to on-going personal and professional growth.
The Social Work Program has been granted continuous accreditation from the Council on Social Work Education at the Baccalaureate Level since 1979. Upon completion of this professional degree program, the Bachelor of Social Work in Social Work affords qualified graduates the opportunity for admission in a 1-year advanced standing Master of Social Work degree program or employment in the field of human services.
