FindAMasters summary

The Professional Social Work Practice MSc is a flexible programme designed to support the development of qualified social workers from early career to leadership roles. Delivered part-time over one to two years, this course offers the opportunity to deepen your understanding of social work practice through in-depth research and advanced scholarship. By completing the full award, you will consolidate your learning in line with the eighth level of the Professional Capabilities Framework. To be eligible, you should have a first degree or accredited prior learning, a recognised social work qualification, registration with the HCPC, and a minimum of 15 hours per week dedicated to social work practice in a leadership role. Please note that recruitment is through local authority secondments.

About the course

The Professional Social Work Practice MSc enables practitioners to bring together 180 academic credits they have accrued from continuing professional development (CPD) modules and for these to be formally recognised as having met the threshold of a masters degree.

While it is expected that the majority of credits will have been gained from modules attended at the University of Brighton, it is also recognised that some applicants may have undertaken credit bearing work elsewhere. In view of this, up to 90 academic credits may be transferred in from work completed at other institutions, providing it meets with the University of Brighton’s assessment and examinations regulations and the necessary course specifications.

Entry Requirements

Applicants should normally have:

- a first degree, or accredited prior learning (APL)
- a recognised social work qualification
- registration with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) as a social worker
- a minimum of 15 hours per week dedicated to professional social work practice in a leadership role
- the agreement of an employer to facilitate relevant experience and supervision.

We recruit to this course through local authority secondments rather than through independent applications. Please note that individual offers may vary.
