Mike Raschick is the Department Head for the MSW program.

Mike has a variety of teaching and research interests. He is especially interested in child welfare, gerontological social work, ecologically-based models of social work practice and clinical social work. Having completed postdoctoral work in aging, he now has special expertise in gerontological social work, especially in family caregiving for elders.

Mike likes the relatively small size of our department. He believes that this facilitates individualized attention to students, as well as a spirit of camaraderie and collaborative learning between students.
