The programme provides extensive knowledge covering professional social work theories and methods, as well as social work principles, values, and ethics. The curriculum is designed based on the National Competency Standards for Social Work Practice (2010). Students will explore Psychology, Sociology, Entrepreneurship, Interpersonal and Counselling Skills. The syllabus is designed to encourage students to think outside the box and become strategic in assisting target groups such as families, children, individuals with disabilities, the elderly, and those facing health or mental health challenges.

Through this programme, students will undergo training to build resilience in dealing with the realities of enhancing community well-being. They will also learn how to improve the social functioning of individuals, families, groups, communities, and organisations by providing a variety of social interventions and support through classroom learning and practicum placements in relevant social agencies.
