Illinois State University School of Social Work

The mission of the School of Social Work is to further social and economic justice, progressive social change, human dignity and personal freedom in a pluralistic society undergoing rapid technological and social change. To this end, the School strives to provide leadership in undergraduate, graduate and continuing education, applied research, and both academic and community service with support from public and private partnerships.

The School of Social Work advances the mission of the University and the social work profession through education for excellence in generalist (BSW) and specialized (MSW) practice with a particular commitment to outreach to the poor, the disenfranchised, and the vulnerable.
