Students may elect to complete a minor in social welfare to complement a major in another human services field such as psychology, criminal justice, education, etc. The social welfare minor at Coppin requires the completion of 18 credits total.
As with social work majors, students wanting to declare social welfare as a minor should obtain a Declaration of Major/Minor form from the social work main office and complete an intake interview with one of the faculty in the department. Like social work majors, students who minor in social welfare will be assigned an academic advisor from the social work faculty.
Students who minor in social welfare are advised that completion of the social welfare minor does not qualify them to sit for the social work licensure examination.
