The School of Social Work and Social Welfare and the Faculty of Social Sciences offer, from the 2017 academic year, a joint program for a BSW together with a BA in criminology. The program is open to a limited number of students according to criteria of excellence.
At the end of their course of study, the student will receive a BSW together with a BA in criminology. The single diploma will be awarded at the degree ceremony of the School of Social Work and Social Welfare.
The program’s aims:
The program is meant for students who wish to study social work but are also seeking academic challenges and interesting combinations from the field of criminology that will enrich and deepen their studies.
The additional knowledge will enrich and vary research and practice in the fields of social work and social welfare. The program will enable students to engage with intellectual and research content in a wide range of topics with practical channels of social and personal significance.
Acceptance requirements:
Excellent students who meet the acceptance cuts of both the School of Social Work and Social Welfare and the Department of Criminology are invited to apply for the program.
Duration of study:
The duration of study in the program is four years. Tuition stands at 400%.
Structure of study course:
The extent of study in Social Work is 96-122 credits, depending on the number of waivers the student receives from studying criminology concurrently. The student is required to take 60 credits in criminology (including “cornerstone” courses).
