Abstract

Abstract This article deals with the extent to which graduate schools of social work are providing education in the field of criminal justice. It raises the question of whether the two-year professional social work model can be adopted for graduate education in criminal justice. A detailed survey taken in 1972 revealed that graduate schools of social work provided insignificant course offerings in the broad field of criminal justice. The article concludes by showing that graduate schools of social work are appropriate vehicles for criminal justice type offerings, while at the same time indicating that those concerned with criminal justice have the opportunity to experiment with the social work model.
