The MSc in Social Work is intended to provide a programme of postgraduate study in social work leading to registration with the Scottish Social Services Council.


Contents

In the first two semesters students are orientated towards the programme design and philosophy; introduced to practice learning and core social work skills; given a grounding in the legal framework of social work practice; and given the opportunity to develop and test out their learning skills in preparation for the remainder of the programme. The remaining time on the programme will be structured according to individual student's needs and available learning opportunities. Students will be given full opportunity to learn in and about diverse practice settings and with a range of client groups.

Methods of Assessment:

Learning will build around a series of assessment tasks, which will enable students to make direct connections between the various knowledge and skills components of social work practice in real practice contexts. Central to the assessment strategy will be a portfolio of work that students will gather throughout the duration of the programme. This will enable students to demonstrate that they have met the full requirements for the MSc and full registration with the Scottish Social Services Council. It will also be used by tutors to give feedback to students on their progress throughout the programme.
