Master of Social Work in Macro Practice (Social Work Practice with Latinos)
關於課程
Macro Practice prepares students for practice in urban settings where the needs of diverse, vulnerable populations require highly skilled professional leaders. Students are prepared to work in communities, in public and private organizations to promote progressive social change that contributes to the growth and empowerment of individuals, agencies and communities. Core concepts and practice skills are developed for work at the community, organizational, societal, and global levels. Students are prepared to assume leadership positions as advocates, managers, program planners, researchers, policy analysts, and agency and community capacity builders.
The Social Work Practice with Latinos Specialization aims to prepare social workers to work with Hispanic/Latino/Latina populations in clinical, community, and social service settings. In the Greater Houston area, a professional with a Master?s degree in Social Work will interact with diverse populations that include Latinos/as from Mexico, Central and South America, and the Caribbean. Houston is the 4th largest city in the United States and one of the most diverse. The Latino population is the fastest growing ethnic group in the U.S., expected to increase from 17% currently to 30% by the year 2050. Designated a Hispanic Serving Institution since 2012, the University of Houston is ripe with opportunities for networking with various Hispanic/Latino cultures on campus. The Social Work Practice with Latinos Specialization creates unique learning opportunities for students to gain effective advanced social work skills for engaging the Latino family and community in social service interventions from a cultural perspective. Through the focused coursework taken in the specialization, a required field component, optional study abroad opportunities, and active exchanges with faculty who teach in the specialization, students benefit from innovative opportunities for increasing professional cultural awareness and understanding of the historical, political, economic, community, social and cultural contexts of Hispanics/Latinos/Latinas.
