Master of Social Work

Program Overview

This programme is designed for graduates who wish to qualify as a social worker, and pursue their passion for improving people’s lives, by studying social work policy, practice and research within a two-year time frame. It will prepare you with the knowledge, self-awareness, and experience you need to thrive in the field of social work. You will enter the workplace as a confident, competent and autonomous social worker, equipped to lead the delivery of personalised and responsive services, which place individuals and families at the centre of their care and support.

The programme aims to develop your interest in, and knowledge and understanding of social work to enable you to:

  • Meet the registration requirements of the SSSC as a qualified social worker.
  • Uphold and promote the rights, values and autonomy of people receiving services and/or carers.
  • Become a critically reflexive practitioner who can lead change in the local, national and global health and social care environment.
  • Learn with and from people receiving services, carers, and other health and social care professionals.
  • Develop skills in appraisal, evaluation, and synthesis of evidence to justify social work interventions and decision making.

At Edinburgh Napier University we aim to be recognised as a university that is professional, ambitious, innovative and inclusive, and to create an environment in which you feel confident, challenged and supported, and proud to be a student here.
