Special Programs

Special programs are designated within the SSA curriculum that allow students to tailor their degree program to their professional interests. By using electives in the degree program to meet requirements of a special program, students build a curriculum that uniquely addresses their interests and prepares them for work in a particular area of social work.

Each of the special programs has prescribed requirements, either required courses or sets of courses from which students may choose. Importantly, each program combines study with a related field experience to allow students to connect their theoretical learning with their practical experience.
