Course programme

The academic year consists of two semesters (each 12 weeks long), but university and placement attendance for those within the School of Social Work will continue outside of these dates.

Year 1

The first year will provide a thorough introduction to the knowledge, skills, history, contexts and values of social work, social sciences and childhood development. You will also complete a child observation and a short shadowing placement.

Year 2

You will receive teaching on social work relating to children and adults, mental illness and disability through your compulsory modules. You will also complete a substantial 70 day practice placement, allowing you to apply your knowledge and values to real-life situations.

Year 3

In your final year you will undertake your second practice placement of 100 days, at the end of which you will be expected to demonstrate the ability to work with minimal supervision. Modules in this year will focus on strengthening the links between theory, research and practice, and refining skills for effective intervention in people’s lives. You will also complete a dissertation on a topic you find particularly engaging.

A full list of current modules we offer can be found on the 'Course Profile' page.
