Social Work
Study in Social Work prepares university-educated, independent workers capable of providing, coordinating and directly implementing social work, which includes the provision of social care and assistance to all groups of the population dependent on any of the types and forms of social work and social services.
The curricula for both degrees are designed to provide an opportunity for the acquisition of the theoretical knowledge necessary for the practice of social work and also for the training and development of practical skills, particularly through professional practice and supervision. Emphasis is placed on the student's independent and creative work, the development of their critical thinking and the promotion of their professional development.
Social work is a multidisciplinary field of scientific knowledge that deals with the scientific understanding of social problems - their origins, causes, possible solutions, the question of the responsibility of the citizen and the state, the optimal level and forms of assistance for the individual, group or community. The study programme is organised in such a way as to prepare future graduates for the performance of social work in direct practice with clients, in the field of organisational and management activities with a focus on social work and social services as well as for scientific research work in this field.
Prospects of graduates
The study programme has two focuses.1) The focus on management and organisation of social services focuses on the acquisition of social worker competences in the field of care management, planning and design, fundraising and marketing, crisis management. The graduate is employed wherever a completed study of social work is required and his/her work is mainly in management or conceptual work at the level of social institutions, in local government or public administration organisations. 2) In the focus on family studies the graduate acquires competences in the use of methods, techniques and procedures of family counselling and therapy, preventive and crisis programmes of work with the family.
