Overview

Bachelor of Social Work

Social work at QUT is committed to creating a community of engaged learners and practitioners with real-world capacities to advocate social change for a more socially just, democratic and sustainable future.

Graduates will understand how broader societal structures shape personal experiences. 

They are committed to working in partnership with people, using various practice methods to support them while simultaneously pursuing social transformation to redress societal injustices.

This course champions a critical approach to social issues, thoroughly integrated with students’ field education experiences to help integrate theory and practice. 

It is a broad degree that equips graduates with many professional employment opportunities. 

However, many units are designed to enable students to explore a particular personal interest or passion. 

This means they can choose and develop a specialist knowledge base in particular practice fields.

You will be taught by passionate social workers and human services professionals who are committed educators. 

They have extensive professional experience in clinical work, political activism, counselling, community development and advocacy, education, and social research.
