The School of Social Work and Human Services offers education at several levels. The Master of Social Work degree focuses on social justice, anti-oppressive practice, and leadership and supervision, in the areas of children and families, health, or mental health. The Bachelor of Social Work degree
prepares students for generalist social work practice, and can be obtained with a Child Welfare specialization. The Social Services diploma prepares students for
work at the para-professional level in the social services field, and is available with a
First Nations option. The Community Support
Worker certificate prepares students to work in a variety of roles with children and adults with mental and/or physical disabilities.
