Points of Pride

There are no Nobel Prizes for social work. Or Pulizer Prizes or Oscars, Emmys or Grammys. The prize of social work is witnessing the long-term improvement of clients, maintaining high professional standards and working with an engaged community of peers. The Augsburg BSW Program graduates generalist practitioners who advocate for their clients and profession locally and globally. We prepare our students for the state licensure exam and have a very high first-time passing rate. Our students take advantage of the Augsburg College Center for Global Education and spend time abroad, challenging their notions of society. Many of the graduates of our program supervise interns in their agencies - passing along their wisdom to a future group of social workers.
