Department of Social Welfare

Overview

Now social welfare system is essential for our life. We explore the value bases of welfare systems. Current social problems are multifaced, complicated and complex. We face poverty, social exclusion and greater risks in all life stages. Therefore, we should employ multidimensional and interdisciplinary perspectives in our research.
Both theoretical and practical research are needed. We also pay attention to philosophical and ethical perspectives of welfare systems, because goals of social policy and social work are closely related to the concept of well-being.
We should develop comprehensive and tangible solutions for our social problems. In this way, social workers and welfare researchers would be innovator in our society. Our course launches these innovators every year.
