Ophelia Ho, MA Social Work
"Before enrolling in this program, I was aware that MA Social Work is an intense programme that is comprised of academic modules and practical placements. I chose to study at UoB because I believed the academic modules could build a solid foundation for my social work career, and the diversified placement opportunities could provide options for students to work in their preferred field. Alongside that, the wellbeing team at the university supports students if they have any mental health needs.”
