Show More The Bachelor of Social Work provides graduates with the theoretical and practical skills required to work as a professional social worker and eligibility to become a member of the Australian Association of Social Workers. Social Workers typically work with disadvantaged and marginalised individuals, groups, and communities within a social justice framework in counselling, advocacy, and the enhancement of quality of life. Social workers work toward addressing barriers, inequality and injustices faced by many groups and sub-groups in our community. Social work education is grounded within a framework that examines the nexus of human behaviour and complex social interactions. While covering all the core requirements of a professional social work degree, the Bachelor of Social Work at UNE provides students with a rural focussed program, with additional foci on Indigenous peoples, child protection and law. This four year program draws together the fields of psychology, sociology, counselling, Indigenous studies and law with social work theory and practice. The course incorporates 1000 hours of supervised professional fieldwork experience in relevant social work settings. The Bachelor of Social Work is available to students to study either on campus, off campus or mixed mode to suit their own study needs over their candidature. Entry RequirementsRecommended studies: English International students must meet the University's English language requirements. Other FeesOverseas examination fees Textbooks Incidental unit costs NotesMandatory intensive schools may be a requirement of some of the units in this course. See Unit Catalogue for specific requirements. To be eligible for membership with the AASW, social work students are required to undertake a minimum of 980 hours (140 x 7 hour days) practical fieldwork during their training, with a minimum placement being 40 days, 2 days per week with a block of at least 2 x 5 day weeks. The AASW also require 5 face-to-face teaching days for every FTE trimester a student undertakes. Therefore a 5 day mandatory intensive school will be attended during fieldwork placements. UNE requires that all students undertake 1000 hours of fieldwork during their degree, over two placements. The first fieldwork placement in trimester 5 is 450 hours (+ 5 days on campus). The number of days p/week will be negotiated with individual students and placement agencies, including a full time block of at least 2 weeks during the placement as per AASW requirements. The second placement (trimester 10) is full time for the whole trimester (550 hours + 5 days on campus). The number of days p/week will be negotiated with individual students and placement agencies in compliance with AASW requirements. Scheduling the first placement in trimester 7 and second placement in trimester 10 ensures that students are not competing for agency placements by undertaking fieldwork in alternating trimesters. |
