在这里学什么？

The Master of Social Work is delivered in one year full-time mode or two years part-time mode in a post-qualifying social work programme*. It is designed for those who have received undergraduate training in social work and wish to advance their knowledge and skills in general, particularly with respect to youth work or mental health practice. The programme, with its structure kept intact, has been continuously strengthened with new academic input and ongoing introduction of new courses addressing rising challenges confronted by social work practitioners and users in the field, such as substance abuse, abusive intimate relations among young people, and domestic violence and tragedies involving people with mental illness. The programme places emphasis on small-class teaching which can facilitate learning in a more comfortable interaction both among students and between students and staff.

The MSW programme aims at developing students in one of two concentrations: youth work and mental health practice. Both concentrations are unique in nature and especially designed for those who are involved in children and youth work, family services, health and mental health social work.

Aims

• To become reflective practitioners who are able to assess changing social needs and adapt their own performance accordingly.
• To become self-directed learners, recognising personal educational needs, selecting appropriate learning resources and evaluating progress.
• To develop specialised knowledge and skills at an advanced level to match up with the emerging social needs and problems in all their complexity and extensiveness.
• To be able to assess critically professional activities and advocate for appropriate reforms in the system.
• To acquire the competence as a researcher-practitioner, so as to enrich one's knowledge base for the development of new policies and interventions for emerging issues.
• To be able to recognise, maintain and develop professional identity to ensure the contribution of the profession in the changing times.
• To be "research literate" - to criticise, use and promote relevant research; and to be able to think theoretically - to criticise, use and promote the development of social work theory.
