The Master of Arts (Social Work) is a research degree involving 24 units of thesis and 12 units of coursework that provides an opportunity for independent research into a topic of relevance to social work. It allows students to develop conceptual and analytical abilities in relation to social work theory and practice, as well as the research skills necessary for completion of the thesis.
