I hold a degree in English. Can I do MA Social Work and Clinical Education Practice? I am interested in both.

Hello Glory and thanks for getting in touch.

Applicants for the MA in Social Work (F80) need to have an honours degree with a minimum 2:2 classification in any discipline together with a proven record of experience of engaging directly with service users in a professional setting. You can see more about the entry requirements and application process here:

Is it the MSc in Advanced Clinical Practice (F85) you are also interested in? For this applicants need to have a degree in a health related discipline so I’m afraid an English degree would not meet this requirement. You can see all of the entry requirements here:

If this isn’t the course you mean please reply to confirm which one you are interested in.
