Master of Social Work - Qualifying (085213F)

Program Description Be an advocate for social justice and human rights. Make a real difference to the lives of people in need. Excel in their career in one of the fastest growing professions. Students might be a new graduate looking for a clear career path or an experienced social worker wanting to take the next step in their professional life. Or perhaps students are ready for a career change and want to step into social work.

Whatever their background, faculty will prepare students to work across human and community services in government bodies, non-government organisations, community and health services and more. They'll become confident working with migrants, people with alcohol, drug and mental health problems and in palliative care, child protection, youth services and much more.

They'll be exposed to challenging real life situations through 140 days during your studies in social work settings, being mentored by experienced professionals in the field. Then, once they graduate, they can go on to be a qualified social worker, take up management positions or work in national or international policy development. This is an Australian Association of Social Workers (AASW) accredited qualification, and is an entry qualification into the social work profession. It has been deemed to meet the Australian Social Work Education and Accreditation Standards.
