Granted by Booth University College, this degree prepares students for a wide range of career possibilities in Christian, community and government agencies. This program of study combines theoretical foundations with experience through supervised practicum opportunities. Students spend as much as two years of the program at Providence University College, and the third and fourth years at Booth University College in Winnipeg.

In addition to meeting the broader objectives of both Providence and Booth, this degree enables graduates to: think intelligently and critically about the world around them, and consider ways Christians can contribute meaningfully and practically to society; enter the workforce in Christian, government, and public sector programs working in the community with people in need.
