Bachelor of Arts in Social Works and Social Administration
About This Programme
The Bachelor of Arts in Social Works and Social Administration trains students to support individuals, families, and communities facing social challenges. At The Unity University, students learn counselling basics, community organising, and social welfare administration, combining care for people with the practical skills needed to run welfare programmes.
The programme places strong emphasis on ethics, cultural sensitivity, and hands-on practice, often through supervised placements with community organisations. Students learn to recognise the needs of vulnerable groups, including children, the elderly, and people with disabilities, and to design services that genuinely help them. Graduates are equipped to design and manage programmes that improve people’s wellbeing, whether in government welfare offices or non-profit organisations.
