The dissertation is an opportunity to carry out independent study, enabling the student to select a field of inquiry relevant to social work and to carry out research in depth over a sustained period. Student learning is supported by regular individul supervision sessions, though the expectation is that the dissertation is primarily an individual piece of work.
