You will engage with a wide variety of fields of social work practice throughout your studies. Your studies will commence with subjects that introduce you to professional practice frameworks and develop your interpersonal and communication skills, culminating in a capstone experience which orients you to your future professional practice. During Orientation week (O Week), you will engage in a three-day intensive class as part of your first subject in critical professional practice skills. It is imperative for you to attend these classes in person as they focus on essential orientation, engagement and foundational skills for social work practice. Coursework is designed to prepare you for two work-integrated learning experiences, in which you will undertake two 70-day placements working alongside social work practitioners in a range of organisations. In the Master of Social Work, you will experience a variety of teaching approaches including seminars, lectures and interactive tutorials facilitated by practitioners and researchers active across different fields of social work practice. Methods include collaborative group work, self-directed and peer learning, scenario and case-based learning and practice skills simulations. We offer face-to-face classes with some evening options. Some classes are also run intensively through the semester. A full-time student will attend approximately eight hours of classes per week each semester, with additional self-directed research and reading to prepare for classes and complete assessment requirements.
