文学士和社会工作学士-历史

历史专业使您能够了解变化，从不同角度审视事物并评估各种信息。第一年的核心是The History Workshop。您将参加一个小组会议，该小组以特定的时间和地点为出发点，以考察社会，文化，政治或经济变化。本课程向您介绍历史思维，并在密集但非正式的学习环境中教您纪律技能。历史讲习班辅以过去1000多年的世界历史单元，将为您提供了解变化和进行比较的广泛框架。
This five-year degree offers a comprehensive and flexible combined degree program that qualifies you as an accredited social worker, while also allowing you to enhance your qualification with majors and minors that complement the Bachelor of Social Work. While this combined degree requires a major or minor in Sociology, or a minor in Social Policy, you can choose another major or minor in various interest areas such as diversity studies, gender studies, Aboriginal Studies, or philosophy. You'll undertake integrated studies in social sciences, social policy and social work theory and practice, with a strong emphasis on Australian and comparative social welfare studies. In the last two years of the degree all students undertake the professional social work program, which includes two fieldwork placements supervised by highly skilled and experienced practitioners in a variety of settings. We develop field education learning expectations across the program and aim to develop values, skills and knowledge for levels from beginner to a practitioner capable of meeting the Australian Association of Social Workers (AASW) Practice Standards.<br><br>The History major equips you to understand change, to look at things from different perspectives, and to assess diverse kinds of information. At the heart of your first year is The History Workshop. You will join a small-group class that takes a particular time and place as the starting point for the examination of social, cultural, political, or economic change. This class introduces you to historical thinking and teaches you disciplinary skills in an intensive but informal learning environment. The History Workshop is complemented by units on world history over the past 1000 years that will provide you with a broad framework for understanding change and making comparisons. In your second and third years, you will explore a variety of subjects - from sexuality and war to politics and culture, from the history of ideas to the history of food - in a range of times and places - spanning from the Middle Ages to the present, from Australia and China to the United States and Europe. You will have the freedom to choose which times and places you wish to focus on. As the largest history major in Australia, the University of Sydney offers a wide range of options. The major culminates in a capstone unit that, depending on your interests, explores the theory of history, gives you the opportunity to do extensive research on a topic you choose yourself, or enables you to work with community groups and other organisations to apply your history skills beyond the classroom.
