Since 1990 our doctoral program has produced thought leaders in academic, public, and private settings who address persistent and emerging inequities through socially just research.

We are known for:

A diverse faculty, staff, and student body that brings a wide variety of experiences and interests; A balanced program culture of rigor and support.

Nurturing faculty and peer mentorship; and nationally and internationally recognized faculty with innovative and expansive areas of expertise.

We prepare culturally responsive social work practitioners, organizational leaders and scholars to address social problems and promote social justice through teaching, research and service.

The Institute offers interdisciplinary teaching, research, and service programs that focus on improving the leadership and effectiveness of non-profit organizations.

The Center fosters a fair, inclusive society through community engagement, education and research that examines links between historic and present-day inequalities.
