Course Overview

The MSW in Social Work is a two-year, full-time postgraduate degree course.

The qualification is recognised throughout the UK, and it’s expected, in due course, to meet the criteria for recognition in the EU and elsewhere overseas. The master's in social work course is based on the Standards in Social Work Education (SiSWE). It is validated by the social work professional body in Scotland, the Scottish Social Services Council (SSSC).

The course provides a stimulating blend of university-based teaching and agency-based learning opportunities across both years.
