Program Overview

The BA in Individual, Family and Community Support is a three year level 7 programme that equips graduates to work within the community and voluntary sector. Graduates are prepared to work with a range of individuals, families and communities experiencing disadvantage and social injustice. This work can include working with ‘ not for profit’ organisations, who are often funded by the state, or with community groups that work with vulnerable groups in society.

The overall aim of the programme is to prepare graduates as reflexive, ethically-aware practitioners who can apply their knowledge and skills to a range of settings, to support, empower individuals, families and communities, in order to make positive changes in their lives, to challenge social injustice and work to effect positive social change.

The course involves the study of related disciplines of Sociology, Social Policy, Psychology, Law, Applied Practice, Personal and Professional Development and Professional Practice Placement.

Special Feature of the BA in Individual, Family and Community Support:

  • All students must successfully complete  supervised work-based placements in an SETU approved practice placement setting.  Placement occurs in Semester 3 and 6, and consists in total of 800 hours of supervised practice placement (400 hours per placement). Placements are spread across the South East region and beyond. There is no certainty that your allocated placement will be close to your home.
