Welcome to the Bachelor of Social Work (BSW) program at Texas A&M University Kingsville! The BSW program is accredited by the Council on Social Work Education and is guided by the National Association of Social Workers (NASW) mission and core values of the social work profession: competence, integrity, service, social justice, human dignity & worth of the person, and the importance of human relationships.

Our program is designed to prepare students for generalist social work practice and offers a hybrid program that is supportive and fosters student success. Students acquire the knowledge and hands-on practice skills in a variety of settings such as schools, child welfare, non-profit organizations, veteran’s services, and mental health, to name a few. Graduates also have the opportunity to make a seamless transition to our graduate program, allowing students to obtain a graduate degree (MSW) in just 3 semesters.

Thank you for showing an interest in joining Javelina Nation and feel free to contact us to learn more about the amazing profession of social work!
