Purpose

The aim of this programme is to develop advanced competencies related to the scientific basis and professional education of social workers, social service professionals and other community development workers to meet local development needs in a changing global context.

Admission Requirements

A four-year bachelor鈥檚 degree in Social Work, or its equivalent, or a three-year degree in
Social Work together with an honours degree in Social Work considered by the head of the
department to be appropriate is required. Alternatively, students from related disciplines with
a three-year degree and an honours degree, or a four-year qualification considered by the
head of the department to be appropriate could also qualify. Students from related disciplines
will, however, not be permitted to register as social workers with the South African Council for
Social Service Professions after completion of this programme.

Selection Process

Admission criteria are based on prior academic performance, as well as a selection process
(including a writing task and interview). Applicants must have a fourth year or honours degree
average of 65% or above, although applications with marks in the low 60s may be considered
if additional evidence of academic competence is provided (e.g. examples of publications).
Confirmation is required from the student’s employer that internship and research may be
conducted in the work situation.
