Information from the course co-ordinator
This course is offered in English and it is an advanced level, part-time course that runs over 10 weeks. It is offered as a distance course and the teaching and learning takes place through a mix of live and pre-recorded lectures, an online webinar, web-based interaction, group work, and work on a take-home exam. All readings for the course are in English but students can choose to write the take-home exam in either English or Swedish. The course does not have meetings on campus.
The course is offered as a programme course on both the Master programme in Social Work (course code SAA104) and the 7th semester of the Socionom programme (course code SAA012).
All live sessions on the course are scheduled in the afternoon on Mondays. There will be one compulsory webinar and this is scheduled Monday 23/9 at 13.00-16.00.
