Student Research
The College of Social Work is committed to supporting student research. Students at the BSSW and MSW degree levels learn to use science-based evidence to guide their practice, and the use of scientific method to evaluate their efforts is a key aspect of our curricula. At the doctoral level, students engage independent inquiry related to a number of important topics. Below are some of the research supports available to our students.
