What is the Speaker Series?

Social Work Speaker Series

We are excited to announce the launch of the MSU Denver Department of Social Work Speaker Series! The goal of this series is to provide students with engaging workshops, seminars, and learning opportunities outside of the classroom that deepen skills, inspire action, and highlight diverse areas of social work practice. Our goal is to host at least one session each semester. 

 

If you’re a student and have a topic you’d love to see covered—such as environmental social work, using animals in healing, psychedelics in therapy, or affecting change through policy—please email us at [email protected].
