Description

Social work is a highly demanding and rewarding profession offering a wide range of opportunities to contribute to positive, meaningful social change. Social Work can be found across sectors, from healthcare to government, helping individuals, families and communities find solutions, advance change, drive social policy, promote social justice and foster human well-being.

In the School of Social Work at King’s, you'll be actively engaged in an inclusive and student-centred learning environment. You'll learn in small classes that focus on the “art and science” of social work and receive an education geared toward critical thinking and complex practice skills. You'll develop professional and practice knowledge, skills, and values to become an ethical, critically reflective, and proficient social work practitioner, researcher and advocate for transformative change within your community.
