The
School of Social Work offers the bachelor of social work and the master of
social work degrees. (See also graduate catalog.)
The
undergraduate major in social work is accredited by the Council on Social Work
Education. The principal educational objective of the major in social work is
to prepare students for beginning professional generalist social work practice.
All
majors have a field education internship of 12 s.h. in one semester in an
approved agency. Agencies serving as field placements include North Carolina
county departments of social services, local mental health centers, state
hospitals for the emotionally disturbed, centers for the mentally retarded,
developmental evaluation clinics, remedial education activity programs,
alcoholic rehabilitation centers, public schools, general hospitals, and care
facilities. Each student is required to make application for the field
education internship twoone semesters
before the semester in the field.
Admission to the BSW program is made during the fall semester.
Students should submit an application to the program during the spring and
summer. A student
is eligible to apply for admission to the BSW degree program when the following
required conditions are met: completion of a minimum of 32 s.h.; an overall 2.5
GPA; and completion of SOCW 1010, 2010 with a 2.5 GPA in these courses. Students who
plan to transfer from a junior or community college are encouraged to take a
four-year college preparatory curriculum that includes human biology. The
social work program will not accept for required major credit upper-level
courses (numbered 3000 and 4000 at East Carolina University) taken at a junior
or community college. The BSW program chairperson will determine the
applicability of upper-level courses taken at senior colleges in meeting the
BSW degree requirements. Additional information on the undergraduate social
work program and application for admission may be obtained from the School of
Social Work, 152 207 Rivers Building.
Bachelor

Social
work majors must pass all required social work courses with a minimum grade of

COLLEGE OF HUMAN ECOLOGY
Karla
Hughes, Dean, 238 Rivers Building
The
College of Human Ecology seeks to improve the quality of life for individuals
and families through education, research, and service. The knowledge base of
the field includes criminal justice, early childhood education, human nutrition
and food, individual and family development through the life span, interior
design, the management of food service and lodging operations, textiles, and social
work. The faculty members of the college are committed to educating students
for professional practice; to conducting research on the conditions which
influence the quality of life for individuals and families; and to extending
this knowledge to the state of North Carolina and beyond.
The
Carolyn Freeze Baynes Institute for Social Justice,
established by the generosity of Charles and Hazel Freeze with the support of
Michael Ray Baynes, is located within the College of
Human Ecology. The gift has been made by the Freeze family of Mooresville,
North Carolina, in memory of their daughter Carolyn, and to promote the issues
to which she devoted. The institute coordinates research, community
partnerships, and scholarship aimed at improving the well-being of individuals
and the quality of community life. The institute offers a number of activities
for students, including research experiences, scholarship opportunities, and
interaction with visiting scholars and alumni.
Undergraduate
study is offered in birth through kindergarten teacher education, child life,
criminal justice, family and community services, family and consumer sciences
education, hospitality management, interior design, merchandising, nutrition
and dietetics, and social work.
