Welcome to the BSW Program! The mission of the BSW program is to prepare entry-level
generalist social work professionals who will demonstrate ethical leadership in innovative
multidisciplinary practice, social reform, and research in diverse communities. Students are
provided a range of opportunities to develop a broad knowledge and skills base consistent with
the systems and strengths perspectives. Students are expected to practice using core social
work values and to examine and resolve ethical dilemmas. Classroom and field experiences
prepare students to be competent in the use of new technologies and in culturally sensitive,
generalist social work practice. Over the years, our students have become successful social
workers, administrators, advocates, lawyers, clergy, and educators. All have left our program
prepared to face the world of work and/or further academic success. This BSW Student
Handbook serves as a resource to help make the undergraduate social work education a
successful journey. It is your responsibility to read through this handbook carefully and be
familiar with and abide by all program policies.

The Department of Psychology strives to develop and apply scientific psychology in ways that enhance human potential.

We support research-based practice because we want to bring our research findings into the everyday practice of psychology. We support practice-informed research because we want to solve real-world problems, not those of interest only to other academics.

This dual focus has inspired our faculty to conduct research on topics ranging from what makes people happy to what keeps planes from crashing into one another. Members of our faculty have served on task forces, national committees (e.g., National Academy of Sciences, the Federal Aviation Administration), and advisory boards (e.g., the Air Force, the Guggenheim Foundation).

The importance and quality of the work we do have been recognized by government agencies, industries and foundations that have provided more than $24.5 million in support for our research work. We count among our current and emeritus faculty eight presidents of Divisions of the American Psychological Association, and a president of the Human Factors & Ergonomics Society.

We are committed to training students at all levels, from high school students who intern with us through post-doctoral students seeking to gain additional skills after receiving their doctoral degree. The department serves more undergraduate majors than any other department in the university, and has a wide variety of minors available to students studying in other areas. We host a strong cadre of roughly 250 graduate students, all of whom are doing research as part of their degree.

We are also at the forefront of evolving technologies in education, with an undergraduate degree that can be completed entirely online. We have also added a Master of Professional studies Degree that can be completed online and is targeted towards working adults.

Students at all levels have the opportunity to work side by side with our faculty in their labs; some of these students go on to do their own independent research through our undergraduate honors program.

George Mason University’s School of Theater provides a rigorous, professional and inclusive environment that promotes creative exploration, individual initiative, community building, and multidisciplinary projects. Students collaborate with others, hone their work ethic, and take responsibility for their own artistry as they forge creative partnerships with peers and faculty.

At Mason, we offer student artists individualized mentoring, a dynamic curriculum, and practical opportunities in performance, directing, musical theater, play development, design and technical theater, and theater education. We help students find their passion, express it, and refine it through their craft. We believe that the best preparation for tomorrow’s artists combines the breadth of a liberal arts education, the depth of discipline-specific training, and the incomparable test of hands-on experience. When they act, direct, write and design, our students test their skills in creative and analytical thinking. They learn to give and receive feedback, to engage as a team, and to adapt to an ever-changing workplace. In the classroom and in rehearsal, we engage the whole artist-citizen, fully supporting that journey, whether it leads to a career in professional theater or enriches a future elsewhere.

Theater is a universal expression of the human spirit. Our School of Theater embraces and ensures this expression through the study of historical, contemporary, and cultural traditions, training in the craft, and the presentation of plays.
