Bachelor of Social Work (Honours) in Seattle United States | Seattle University

Our curriculum, grounded in social justice principles, equips you for generalist social work practice in community settings through demanding academics and experiential learning. Alumni consistently report feeling thoroughly prepared for both professional social work roles and advanced studies. The social work profession often receives limited or misleading media representation, frequently reduced to simplistic stereotypes like child removal scenarios. Many students initially experience confusion when distinguishing between related helping fields such as psychology, nursing, public policy, and nonprofit management. Some may have personal connections to social workers, offering insight into the profession's diverse possibilities. Others might have directly experienced social work interventions in educational, healthcare, or community environments.
