The scholarship of the University of Minnesota’s School of Social Work faculty is consistently ranked among the top 10 public schools of social work in the United States (Feldman, 2006). Our faculty and graduate students are leaders in research among diverse communities on pressing social issues such as child welfare, youth development, disability, aging, family violence and restorative justice to name just a few.

The School's Minnesota Center for Social Work Research brings together these many efforts by individual faculty and students as well as our School’s research and training centers. We invite you to explore the depth of our School's rich scholarly community through the links to your left.
