Social Work Faculty Research Accepted for Presentation at National Conference
By

Pittsburgh, PA - A paper entitled “Student Research in Social Work Education: What Helps, What Hurts?” has been accepted for presentation at the Council on Social Work Education’s Annual Program Meeting to be held in San Francisco in October 2007. The paper is the result of a national survey of social work program directors conducted by the Chatham social work faculty. Drs. Rubin, Robinson and Valutis collaborated on the project which grew out their continuing interest in promoting and supporting student research in social work. All social work majors at Chatham complete a research project during their senior year while also completing a field placement in the community. The Council on Social Work Education (CSWE) is a national association representing individual members as well as graduate and undergraduate programs of professional social work education and is the sole accrediting body for social work education in the United States.
