The Department of Social Work continues to experience growth in terms of students, faculty, and programs. The BSW program is a thriving program with well over 200 students majoring in social work. The BSW program has been continuously accredited by the Council on Social Work Education (CSWE) since 1978. The BSW program is offered in both Bowling Green and Elizabethtown. The MSW program enrolls well over 100 graduate students and received initial accreditation from the CSWE in June, 2006. Our MSW program offers a unique concentration: advanced direct practice in rural settings.Currently, the MSW progam can be completed in Bowling Green, Cookeville, TN and Paducah. Significant departmental projects include the WKU Training Resource Center (TRC), the Public Child Welfare Certification Program (PCWCP), the Credit for Learning Project (CFL), and the MSW Cohort Studies Initiative.
