The BSW program has numerous dual degree options for students. These include psychology; sociology (applied practice track); gender, women, and sexuality studies; criminal justice; fine arts; and K–12 school counselor certification. All students enrolled in these programs must consult with their advisors in social work and the corresponding program for accurate academic advisement in both programs.

Please note that courses in the following dual degrees may be taken out of order so that students can complete all curricular requirements: Psychology; Gender, Women, & Sexuality Studies; Sociology; Fine Arts; and Criminal Justice.

Students may elect to earn a dual degree in social work and gender, women, and sexuality studies. This is accomplished by using free electives to complete requirements for the gender, women, and sexuality studies major, including the general education requirements. Students who follow the curriculum below receive a BSW degree and a BA in gender, women, and sexuality studies.
