SOCW 239 - Human Behavior and the Social Environment

Credits: 3

This course is designed as a focal point of integration for human behavior content in life span development, biology of human concern, and social work courses required of pre-majors. The overall goal of this course is to assist the student in understanding the “person-in-environment” and systems concepts when working with individuals, families, and groups. This course provides opportunities for the student to understand the biological, psychological, sociological, and spiritual aspects of individuals as well as other cultures and minority groups. As a result, students will be able to integrate these components of human behavior as generalist social workers.
