MA/MS in Soziale Arbeit (berufsbegleitend)

The part-time Master programme in Social Work focuses on leadership, counselling, steering and digitality. It is aimed at people who already work in social services and want to develop management and advisory skills alongside their job. The degree is awarded as Master of Arts. The course runs over six semesters with one fixed study day per week and two block weeks per semester. Content includes organisational development, quality and personnel management, community steering, and the theory and practice of counselling processes. A distinctive strand addresses how digital transformation changes communication, professional practice and identity for both staff and clients. Students reflect on their own leadership behaviour and learn to shape social change in a targeted way. The short on-campus and online phases are designed to fit around professional duties.
