Faculty of Social Work 60th Anniversary Celebration

You’re Invited: Celebrating 60 Years of the Faculty of Social Work at the University of Calgary

For 60 years, our faculty has been shaped by an extraordinary community of students, alumni, faculty, staff, donors, and partners. These contributions have helped build a legacy of innovation, leadership, and social impact.
