MA Social Work

... United Kingdom
... De Montfort University

Course Overview

DMU has a 30-year history of delivering social work education at the undergraduate level. This course uses this experience to offer social work qualification at the postgraduate level with successful completion providing eligibility to apply for registration with Social Work England. The course is vocational and up to half of it is spent on placement in social work settings. The course aims to produce capable and competent students ready to enter the profession and make a difference in service users lives. The qualification is generic so you will be able to work across a range of adult and childcare settings in both the statutory and voluntary sectors. Benefit from a variety of teaching methods including formal lectures, student-led learning, problem-based learning, self-directed study and e-learning. Alongside this, the Social Work MA has 170 days of practice-based learning. We have strong links with placement providers which produce high-quality placements supervised by practice educators. Placements are normally within the Leicester City or Leicestershire geographical area and are full-time work-based learning commitments.
