Support Texas Social Work

Texas Social Work has been a top 10 school of social work in nation for more than 20 years (U.S. News & World Report) and celebrates an enduring legacy of bright students, talented faculty, dedicated staff and accomplished alumni.


75 Years of Impact

Since 1950, UT Social Work has developed leaders and change-makers committed to advancing society through innovative teaching, impactful scholarship and compassionate service.

As we reflect on the legacy of the past seven and a half decades, we are also focused on building a stronger future—one where every student has the opportunity to fully engage in their education without the burden of financial hardship.

That’s why, in honor of this anniversary year, we’re launching a special campaign to raise outright scholarship support for practicum education students. Practicum is at the heart of our curriculum, providing students with real-world experience that prepares them to lead, serve, and advocate in their communities. Yet for many, the financial strain of unpaid practicum placements can be a significant barrier. Your support can change that.

A gift to this campaign directly supports scholarships for students as they complete their required practicum placements—offsetting costs such as transportation, housing, and lost wages from part-time jobs. Your generosity empowers them to fully commit to this critical phase of their training and, in turn, strengthens the future of our field.

As we celebrate 75 years of impact, we invite you to help us honor the past by investing in the future.

Make a gift and play and active role in improving the experiences for those in the Texas Social Work community. Your support helps us engage the best and brightest students, empower our award-winning researchers and make a positive impact in Austin and beyond.

Your gift allows UT Social Work to address the most pressing needs of students, faculty and programs within the school.
