Course summary
The teaching of social work is long-established at the University with taught sessions taking place on the main campus, centrally located in the historic, bustling city of Canterbury. The MA Social Work programme has three main integrated areas of learning the study of academic subjects, development of skills, and practice placements. It is generic, enabling those completing successfully to work in a range of settings meeting the diverse needs of service users, families and carers. The programme will provide you with the opportunity to build on your previous experience and educational studies to develop the skills and knowledge required for effective social work practice. The programme is flexible, providing for study through a fulltime or part-time route with the option for students to change their route, subject to agreement. The minimum commitment for part-time students is two days a week.
Assessment method
Assessed in a variety of ways including written assignments, group and individual presentations and completion of practice portfolios.
