Click to Enlarge Social Work
AREA OF CONCENTRATION: The purpose of this transfer track is to prepare students for a career in the helping and or counseling and mental health care professions. A title of Generalist Social Worker can be earned with the Bachelor’s of Social Work (BSW) degree and can be completed at the FSU Panama City Campus. In addition to completion of the BSW, a Master’s Degree (MSW) can be obtained at the FSU‐PC campus and can help prepare students for state licensure at the Licensed Clinical Social Workers (LCSW) level. Both the bachelor’s and master’s degrees will require internships at one of the local mental health agencies in addition to course work. It is highly recommended that students become familiar with the admissions requirements at the university or college they plan to attend.
