BA (Hons) Social Work
If you are looking to enter the social work profession, you'll need a highly-rated undergraduate degree course with excellent employment opportunities, and that is exactly what we can offer you here at the University of Dundee.

This BA Social Work course is accredited by the Scottish Social Services Council (SSSC) and is recognised by all the UK Social Work registering bodies.

Most of our graduates are employed shortly after graduating, with many securing employment prior to finishing their studies.

"I always felt that I wasn't going to be a statutory social worker, actually I felt quite nervous of the thought of having to explore what area I could go into. The placement I had at Dundee Carer's Centre really enabled me to explore what area I would like to go into. Luckily enough for me, the piece of work that I was tasked to do on self-directed support for the Centre has directly influenced the passion I now have for self-directed support. I'm just really grateful that I've been able to find my niche."
