As one of the nation’s top schools of social work, Boston University School of Social Work (BUSSW) is dedicated to the pursuit of excellence in education, research, and evidence-based and anti-oppressive practice to solve the most pressing societal problems of the 21st century. We are particularly committed to having an impact in all aspects of health, for individuals, groups, families, and society as a whole—as evidenced by the dual degree we offer with BU’s School of Public Health, and by our three research centers (Center for Innovation in Social Work and Health (CISWH), Center for Aging and Disability Education and Research (CADER), and The Institute for Equity in Child Opportunity and Healthy Development (IECOHD)).

That tradition shapes our enduring commitment to academic freedom, free inquiry, and the robust exchange of ideas. Please visit https://www.bu.edu/values/ to learn more about our shared values.
