Social workers work closely with other organisations to support and protect children and adults from harm, and to effect personal and social change. Studying social work at the University of Chester will offer you an opportunity to develop the skills needed to perform as a social work practitioner in today’s challenging and unpredictable landscape. Both our full-time and part-time programmes are regulated and approved by Social Work England. On completion of the MA in Social Work, students will be eligible to apply to register with Social Work England. Social work is a complex and demanding profession that requires a particular combination of intellectual ability, analytical skills, and personal qualities such as emotional resilience, empathy and the ability and willingness to use role-based authority when needed. Social work education at the University of Chester is now provided in collaboration with the Cheshire and Merseyside Social Work Teaching Partnership.
