The Department of Social Work at St. Antony’s College, Peruvanthanam, is committed to shaping socially responsible and competent professionals equipped to address the diverse challenges of society. We offer two comprehensive programs: the Bachelor of Social Work (BSW) and the Master of Social Work (MSW), designed to provide students with both theoretical knowledge and practical skills.
Our department is dedicated to fostering an environment that promotes critical thinking, empathy, and a commitment to social justice. Through a well-rounded curriculum, students gain in-depth insights into social issues and develop the competencies needed to work effectively in community settings, healthcare institutions, non-governmental organizations, and various social welfare agencies.
Studying at our department provides students with extensive exposure to real-world social work practices. We integrate classroom learning with fieldwork, community outreach programs, workshops, and internships. This hands-on experience enables students to develop leadership, communication, and advocacy skills while working with diverse populations.
Our experienced faculty members guide students to acquire research skills, enhance their understanding of human behavior, and cultivate a profound commitment to social change. Students also benefit from seminars, guest lectures by industry experts, and collaborations with renowned social work organizations.
