As part of this exploration, you will learn about epistemology, ethics, values, and other philosophical concepts directly impacting how we think about and act in practice. A deep dive into social work ethics and values provides a necessary foundation for your current ethical student conduct and your future social work practice. Finally, you will develop a framework for how we think in social work, both critically and reflectively, with the intention of reducing bias and increasing possibility.
