Social work is a professional and academic discipline focused on helping individuals, families, groups, and communities enhance their well-being and improve their quality of life. It combines theoretical knowledge with practical skills to address social issues such as poverty, inequality, mental health, child welfare, and substance abuse. The course emphasizes values like social justice, human rights, and respect for diversity. Students learn to assess social problems, develop intervention strategies, and advocate for policies that support vulnerable populations. Through classroom learning and fieldwork placements, social work students gain the tools to make a positive impact in various settings, including schools, hospitals, community centers, and government agencies. The course prepares graduates for roles that involve counseling, case management, community development, and social policy analysis.
