Study the theory and practical skills of social work, and gain the training required to qualify and register as a social worker in Wales and the wider UK.
Our 2-year MA in Social Work is approved by Social Care Wales, so when you graduate, you’ll qualify as a social worker.
You’ll gain an in-depth understanding of the ethics and values of social work, social work practice skills, and critical practice relating to the law around children, families and adult care, and the key theories and perspectives underpinning social work policy and practice.
With us, you’ll build on and refine your critical research and analytical skills in relation to social work practice and policy and develop professional reflective practice techniques.
You’ll apply your learning and develop your workplace skills and professional networks by completing 3 Practice Learning Placements - amounting to 1400 hours - hosted by one of the 9 Local Authorities in Wales we work in partnership with. The practical training will allow you to apply your theoretical learning to real life situations, working with diverse people who use services and carers.
From communication skills to legal duties, professional decision-making to an understanding of socio-economic factors, our programme will equip you for full-time social work.
