Social work was first organized as a major area of study at Alabama State University in 1974. The department was accredited by the Council on Social Work Education at the baccalaureate level in 1989 and was affirmed in 1992. The social work program gained full status as a separate academic department in the fall of 1994 and was reaffirmed in 2000 and 2008 for an eight-year period. The BSW Program is currently in the midst of the 2017 re-affirmation process. It is the only accredited Bachelor of Social Work (BSW) program in the Montgomery area.
