Program Description
The Bachelor of Social Work (BSW) is a four-year degree program offered through the University of Regina's Faculty of Social Work, as well as Yukon College and regional colleges throughout Saskatchewan. The BSW is accredited by the Canadian Association for Social Work Education. The curriculum incorporates essential field education components that enable you to develop the skills learned in the classroom through direct experience in Social Work practice, even before you graduate. There are two entry points into the Faculty of Social Work: Pre-Social Work, and the Bachelor of Social Work (BSW). Applicants must complete a minimum of 30 credit hours of prescribed University courses prior to gaining admission to the BSW and can do this through the Pre-Social Work program. Applicants to the BSW must have achieved a minimum UGPA of 70% and a minimum Program Grade Point Average (PGPA) of 70% on all courses contributing to the BSW degree, including failing grades and grades from courses granted as transfer credit towards the program.
