Our mission is to educate generalist social work practitioners to promote the health and well-being of individuals, families and communities, emphasizing the diversity and uniqueness of rural Alaska. The program includes an intensive 400-hour senior practicum that gives you the opportunity to engage in direct social work practice experiences under the supervision of a social worker in a social service agency. In addition to being offered at the Troth Yeddha’ campus in Fairbanks, Alaska, the social work degree is available via distance delivery and online classes, enabling students from across Alaska to complete their bachelor’s from their home communities. This program is provided through a cohort model specifically designed for students who are working in or have experience with the social service field, so they can take courses and work at the same time.
