The MA in Youth and Community Work has a professionally endorsed Post Graduate Diploma in Youth and Community work embedded within it and is particularly suited to graduates who have found themselves working in youth and community work and who wish to gain a professional qualification in the field.
The course offers students the opportunity to gain a full academic MA as well as a professional qualification in youth and community work. The programme requires students to undertake two separate professionally supervised placements in the field of youth and community work and it is possible to study the programme on either a part time or a full-time basis, attending the university to undertake the taught modules and guided practice tutorials. Students on this programme tend to develop into a highly supportive, friendly, and professional group.
The course is endorsed by Education Training Standards (ETS) Cymru Wales for youth work and will enable you to secure a professional youth and community work role in the field of youth and community work.
The course comprises four taught modules of which one is an optional module, and two placement focused modules taught at the university campus, that run concurrently with two fieldwork placements. Modules run over a semester and are each worth 20 credits at level 7. Students will complete a dissertation module worth 60 credits, focusing on a topic of choice related to the field of youth and community work.
