Course summary

Social workers change the lives of people every day, from birth to old age. They support individuals and families, provide interventions and services to meet the needs of those in need at critical points in their lives. Social work is a profession that upholds human rights and social justice and helps people to overcome life challenges and the risks they face. The Degree in Social Work was introduced in 2004 to meet the requirements of the Northern Ireland Social Care Council, which, along with other Councils, agreed that all social work training would be offered at Honours degree level. One of the main features is the introduction of a pre-registration year . This means that when you complete the degree, you will then have to successfully undertake an assessed year in employment before being eligible for full registration as a Social Worker with the Northern Ireland Social Care Council.
