Social Work Courses at Excelsia College

Social work is an academic practice-based profession that promotes social justice, inclusion and wellbeing. The Master of Social Work (Qualifying) aims to produce graduates who are professionally competent, aware of social-political realities of the human services and committed to social change through supporting and promoting the strengths of disadvantaged and vulnerable populations. The focus is on face-to-face small classes and intensive interaction with fellow students and experienced social work academics. As social work engages with a changing world where social media, online material and interactivity student learning will also include blended learning technologies.

The learning will be delivered through: workshops; case studies; in-class exercises; experiential learning strategies; flipped classrooms; social work laboratory; written reports; oral presentations; blogs; essays; and research reports. Finally, students will explore social work practice through field education practicums.
