Social workers provide a vast array of services for California’s families and represent a link between state services and community action. With the number of neglected children, needy elderly and disadvantaged ethnic populations steadily increasing, there is a significant demand nationwide for qualified social workers.
The profession of social work is deeply committed to the relief of human distress and to meeting the social, psychological and economic needs of human beings. The CSU’s dedication to making a difference within the community and each professor’s devotion to helping others is what sets the CSU learning experience apart from other institutions. The CSU takes pride in providing students a well-rounded education through instructors that instill knowledge, offer opportunities to assist with their research/work and inspire passion for compassion. 
The CSU graduates professionals in social work who have ample experience in the field and are well versed on the theoretical side of the profession. In addition to teaching students about social policy, methods to analyzing behavior and how to deal with different groups of people, the social work schools and programs give students hands-on experience in the field.
