1	MASTER OF ARTS IN SOCIAL WORK	25-Jul-2022	03-May-2024	MYANMAR	INTERESTED IN SOCIAL WORK	The School of Social Work (SSW) promotes education in social work that is democratic, emancipatory, egalitarian, and develops a critical perspective in students. It also identifies new areas for social work practice and evolves innovative strategies through practice-based research and field action projects. Other thrust areas of the School are research, networking and liaising with governmental and non-governmental organisations for capacity building, policy and programme development, and extension. The School of Social Work offers 9 M.A. Social Work programmes emerging from the thematic areas of the 8 Centres. In the first year, students are introduced to the field of Social Work through core courses and fieldwork which is generic in nature. Fieldwork in the first year is organised in a way that each student is exposed to a broader thematic area, not necessarily one that the student has chosen to specialise in. Foundation Courses focus on key social issues. All these together help students develop a critical-analytical gaze and basic intervention skills of working with marginalised groups and institutional structures. Programme- specific, thematic inputs in the first year are designed to help students understand concepts, theories and practice in their chosen field of engagement. It is in the second year that thematic inputs are deepened through several more courses offered by each Centre, anchoring the specific M.A. programme. M.A. Social Work with Children and Families M.A. Social Work in Community Organisation and Development Practice M.A. Social Work in Criminology and Justice M.A. Social Work in Dalit and Tribal Studies and Action M.A. Social Work in Disability Studies and Action M.A. Social Work in Livelihoods and Social Entrepreneurship M.A. Social Work in Mental Health M.A. Social Work in Public Health M.A. Social Work in Women-Centred Practice Details	COMPLETED	ITEC
