Description:
Social work is an exciting and rewarding career for those interested in working with people, and in addressing social and community issues and problems. Social workers play a key role in developing a society based on social justice, and in alleviating disadvantage. Social workers stimulate action to change the social circumstances of individuals and groups who are socially excluded. They also work to reduce personal pain and distress, and provide direction for individual development and control over life situations.
The Master of Social Work Studies enables people with an undergraduate degree to qualify as a social worker and gain a postgraduate degree. The program is accredited by the Australian Association of Social Workers (AASW) and graduates will be eligible to join the Association on completion of the degree. The program is particularly suited to new graduates looking for a clearly defined career path, mid-life career changers, human service workers looking to upgrade their skills and become a qualified social worker, and international students seeking to work as a social worker in Australia or overseas.
