Course Curriculum Overview

The social work degree at post graduate level is spread out over a period of two years with the main focus being on the field work and gaining practical knowledge from experienced faculties. Due to this course structure, we learn a lot not only in terms of a practicing aspect, but also broadening our perspectives and learning something new every day.

Placement Experience

2.5

At an university providing us education through distance learning, the only way for us to get information about any jobs or internships is through the faculty teaching us. They are the sources of information for us about any opening or any vacancies nearby.

Fee Structure And Facilities

The best part about the college is the exclusively cheaper rate of education given to all the students equally. The fee structure for my degree turned out to be way more affordable than any other university around. My fee for the 2 years came to be somewhere around near Rs.10000, which is very feasible.

Campus Life

Since I had opted for distance learning, there is really nothing you can do to experience the college life and the social life on campus. We do get some notifications regarding any extra curricular event like a workshop or a seminar or an interactive meet in and around our vicinity so we can make the most out of the resources available.

Admission

The admission to the Social work degree at masters level requires the student to have previous background of Social work in bachelors level. The candidate should have been academically outstanding throughout the 3 years of undergraduate education and should have scored decent percentage.

Faculty

3.5

We are blessed to have an amazing set of faculty comprising of some intelligent and senior level personalities in our field. Due to their enormous experience level, we gain a lot of knowledge an insights from them which we can definitely implement in our practice.
