Social Work degrees combine academic courses with intensive skills development and internship experience in the field. If you don't already have a degree you can do a four-year Bachelor of Social Work. If you do have a relevant degree you can apply for a Master's of Social Work (Applied). Check out UC's Social Work department.
HOW TO APPLY
Social Work degrees combine academic courses with intensive skills development and internship experience in the field.
There are two options for gaining a first professional qualification. Those without a prior degree can complete a four-year Bachelor of Social Work while those with a relevant degree can apply for entry to the Master's of Social Work (Applied).
Graduates of both degrees are eligible to apply for registration as a social worker in New Zealand and overseas.
