The undergraduate social work curriculum prepares entry-level practitioners for a wide range of direct service positions working with and on behalf of individuals, families, groups, and communities.  The Bachelor of Social Work Degree is the beginning professional degree and employment opportunities are numerous and varied.

The Harrisburg based B.S.W. Degree Completion program is designed for individuals that have completed an associate's degree or have earned college credit.  Students are expected to transfer at least 64 credits from other colleges/universities.  Once accepted to Temple, students complete the professional course requirements for the B.S.W. degree.  Classes are offered in the evenings and on weekends to accommodate working people. 

Program Design:  The program is designed as part-time with students taking two classes per semester.  Using summers, students usually complete their degree in three years.

At TUH, we cater to the busy adult by offering a convenient evening and weekend course schedule.  Outstanding Ph.D. and practitioner faculty provide both on-site and distance education learning opportunities.  Staff is available to assist you days, evening and weekends.
