You will develop the skills to practice as a generalist social worker within diverse populations and multi-level social systems, and also gain skills to facilitate the planned change process.

This pathway is for students who intend to pursue a Bachelor of Arts degree at a four-year school.
Students must meet general education requirements for the Associate in Arts degree, and should complete the remaining required semester hours according to the requirements of the four-year school to which they plan to transfer.
