Make a difference in people's lives
If you have a passion for helping people in the community, our programmes will equip you with the tools and research-informed knowledge you'll need for a rewarding career.
Our Social Work degree is approved by Social Work England, and as a graduate you are eligible for registration with Social Work England as a qualified Social Worker. The programme has been developed in close collaboration with partner social work agencies and is led by experienced practitioners and academics. You'll learn the latest best practice and professional standards required for safe and effective practice as a social worker.
