Bachelor of Social Work

Program Overview

In this course, you will gain the skills to work with individuals, groups and communities to address barriers that impact quality of life; promote positive relationships; and advocate for human rights and social change at the societal, individual, policy and legislative levels.

You’ll study in-depth human behaviour and complex social processes; and draw on knowledge from various disciplines – including sociology, psychology, politics, philosophy, health and economics – to learn how people engage with each other, their communities and society.

Throughout your studies, you‘ll develop the skills and values needed to counsel individuals and groups; and to work with children, young people, adults, the elderly, and people from diverse ethnic and cultural backgrounds.

You’ll complete two supervised fieldwork placements (totalling 1,050 hours over four years), applying your learning in work environments and developing your professional identity.
