Haigazian and Samford Universities Graduate First Social Work Class

Haigazian University in Beirut and Samford University have graduated their first cohort of students from an Advanced Diploma in Social Work program. The initiative, developed through Haigazian's Center for Continuing Education, represents a collaborative effort between the Armenian-founded institution and the U.S.-based university to expand professional social work training in the region. The program reflects growing emphasis on specialized social services education in the Middle East and demonstrates institutional partnership between Armenian and American higher education institutions. Graduates are prepared for roles in community development, humanitarian work, and social services sectors.
