Sociology & Social Work
The Department of Sociology and Social Work offers a variety of courses useful to students with diverse professional and educational goals. The department offers a major and a minor in sociology, courses in cultural anthropology, and a major in social work.
Sociology
Sociology is a popular major for students planning careers in such professions as law, business, journalism, health care, education, politics, social services, or public administration. It provides a solid body of knowledge on the nature and problems of human relations and a distinctive way of looking at the world. Through readings, research, and systematic discussion students are introduced to fundamental problems of the contemporary world in an innovative and challenging manner and are prepared to become imaginative and sensitive participants in the events that will shape the 21st century.
Social Work
The Social Work Program prepares students for generalist BSW level social work. Bradley’s Social Work Program is accredited by the Council on Social Work Education. Graduates in social work are licensable in Illinois and most other states, and they receive advanced standing in most graduate schools of social work.
