LIBERAL ARTS BASE

Just as our professional accreditation organization, the Council on Social Work Education, requires us to be a generalist program, it also requires you to have a strong Liberal Arts preparation before beginning your social work courses. Thus, the following cross-disciplinary courses must be completed prior to beginning the major.

SOC 200 - Social Life
PLS 200 - Political Life
PSY 105 - Psychology : The Science of Behavior
PSY 341 - Lifespan Developmental Psychology
EC 200 - Economic Life
BIO 107 - Introductory Biology : Disease
COM 102 - Essentials of Interpersonal Communication

Wright State has implemented a new general education program beginning Fall 2003. Please see the linked document to read about policies and learning objectives of the new program.
