The Department offers an interdisciplinary Post Graduation level course in Social Work. This four semester course draws its strength from various social sciences disciplines where theory and practicum are blended with an integrated approach. The field work practicum is the signature pedagogy of social work education which emphasises on supervised intervention in the field, to deliberate on theory in practice.
