The course covers major challenges facing our current world, including:

  • Community development and practice

On our International Social Work and Community Development course you’ll have the opportunity to do a voluntary work placement. You'll also take part in other initiatives relevant to your study.

You’ll get to make a difference to the lives of people around you. This could be working in your own community, or pursuing a professional career in policy-making or public services. You could also do international development work.

This course is taught at our Burnley Campus. Because we keep our class sizes small, you’ll be part of a close-knit family of students, tutors and staff.

Please note that this degree will not qualify you to register as a social worker. If you wish to become a registered social worker, our BA (Hons) Social Work is a professional qualification recognised by Social Work England.
