"summary": "**Why study this course?**\n\nOur Social Work MSc course is professionally accredited by the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC). Once you’ve successfully completed the course and become a registered social worker with the HCPC, you’ll also be eligible for membership of the British Association of Social Workers.\n\nYour career will benefit from our course with its history rooted in the principles of equality and social justice. It covers a wide range of social work subjects, helping you to develop into a reflective and resilient practitioner who can work in a variety of settings. This may include working with children, families, older people or individuals with mental health problems or learning disabilities.\n\nLondon Met is the “preferred provider” of social work in 2017 for the North East London commissioning panel, which represents the Social Work Development Partnership of five local authorities. This demonstrates the excellence of teaching you can expect on our Social Work MSc.\n\n**More about this course**\n\nYou’ll develop into a reflective and resilient social work professional with this professionally-accredited programme. The focus is on developing your practical skills for future use in the working environment. These skills are based upon up-to-date research, theories, policies and legislation.\n\nYou’ll develop knowledge of subjects including:\n\n\n- application of the law\n\n\n- assessment and planning\n\n\n- human growth and development\n\n\n- research evaluation\n\n\n- safeguarding vulnerable adults and children\n\n\n- social work theory\n\n\nImportantly, we'll ensure you’ll understand how to apply the academic knowledge, skills and theory to real-world social work.\n\nIn the final year, you’ll write a dissertation on a topic of your choice. This is achieved through your own independent study. You'll be free to combine research and evidence, current policy, practice and theoretical perspectives.\n\n**What our students say**\n\n“I come from an IT background. The teaching on social work theories, human growth and development and anti-oppressive practice has been excellent in helping me understand social work concepts”.\nFranck Omombo, final year student on our Social Work MSc",
