Overview
The University of New England is at the forefront of online education and offers all courses in online format. For further information check the most up-to-date University of New England COVID-19 arrangements.
Covering the core requirements of an accredited professional social work degree, this course gives you the skills to understand how human behaviour interacts with complex social environments and institutions.
With a shortage of social workers in many countries, your UNE qualification can take you around the world. Our social work degrees are recognised internationally and locally.
Social workers address barriers, inequality and injustices faced by many groups, particularly those who are socially excluded. Our flexibly delivered course will equip you with the practical skills to work with and empower individuals, groups and communities who experience marginalisation, isolation or discrimination.
This innovative and flexible social work course has an emphasis on rural and complex communities, and focuses on rights-based practice, mental health, Indigenous peoples, child protection and the law.
