Engaged, Diverse, Ready for Service

One of the best parts about social work is that curiosity and exploration are encouraged. Most students enter the program without a set job in mind, only with an excitement to learn how best to make a difference in the world.

The Grace Abbott Training and Supervision Academy stays connected with alumni through continuing education, supervision, and Association of Social Work Boards (ASWB) exam preparation and supports social workers and behavioral health professionals throughout their careers.

Our academic advisors offer one-on-one advising to prospective, transfer, and pre-social work students, as well as students who have been formally admitted to the Bachelor of Science in Social Work (BSSW) and Master of Social Work (MSW) programs.
The mission of the Grace Abbott School of Social Work at the University of Nebraska at Omaha is to educate students to become highly qualified social workers who serve all people, influence the systems that affect them, advance knowledge through teaching and research, engage with diverse communities, and promote socially just societies.
