Social work entails working to achieve positive growth within the personal, social and environmental context of everyday life; addressing the barriers faced by people in achieving their aims; and assisting individuals, families and communities to manage complex and diverse challenges. These may be related to personal issues, relationship concerns, economic disadvantage, or to any of a wide range of problems encountered in the community.<\/p>\n<p>The task of the Social Work Department is, as its name implies, to train social workers. Social work is a helping profession. The task of a social worker is to assist individuals, families and groups in trouble, in difficult situation or to deal with extraordinary problems that are greater than their problem solving abilities. The goal of the social worker is to help their clients get back to their normal routine.<\/p>\n<p>The department of Social Work at the John Wesley Theological College prepares individuals for the helping profession of social worker.\u00a0 \u00a0Social work is a complex activity which demands the technical knowledge of several divisions of science. So in the social work program, specific knowledge \u2013 as it applies to individuals, families and certain groups and their place within the society &#8211; is emphasized. Among the subjects are social history, sociology, psychology, theory and practice of communication, political science, law and economics.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=&#8221;Our teachers&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.25.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; theme_builder_area=&#8221;post_content&#8221; open=&#8221;off&#8221;][\/et_pb_accordion_item][\/et_pb_accordion][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_3&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.25.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; theme_builder_area=&#8221;post_content&#8221;][et_pb_toggle title=&#8221;INFORMATION&#8221; open=&#8221;on&#8221; open_toggle_text_color=&#8221;#000000&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.25.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; title_text_color=&#8221;#000000&#8243; title_font=&#8221;|700|||||||&#8221; body_text_color=&#8221;#000000&#8243; background_color=&#8221;#f2f2f2&#8243; width=&#8221;100%&#8221; hover_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; theme_builder_area=&#8221;post_content&#8221; sticky_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243;]<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"38\" data-end=\"77\"><strong>HEAD OF DEPARTMENT<br \/><\/strong>&#8211;<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"38\" data-end=\"77\"><strong>OUR PROGRAMME<\/strong><br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/wesley.hu\/wesley-college\/programmes\/social-work-ba\/\">Social Work BA<\/a><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"38\" data-end=\"77\"><strong data-start=\"38\" data-end=\"65\">LANGUAGE OF PROGRAMME<\/strong><br data-start=\"65\" data-end=\"68\" \/>English<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"79\" data-end=\"116\"><strong data-start=\"79\" data-end=\"102\">DURATION OF STUDIES<\/strong><br data-start=\"102\" data-end=\"105\" \/>7 semesters<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"118\" data-end=\"152\"><strong data-start=\"118\" data-end=\"141\">LOCATION OF STUDIES<\/strong><br data-start=\"141\" data-end=\"144\" \/>Budapest<\/p>\n<p><strong data-start=\"118\" data-end=\"141\">NAME OF QUALIFICATION<br \/><\/strong>Social worker<\/p>\n<p><strong>TUITION FEE<br \/><\/strong>2500 EUR \/ semester<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"353\" data-end=\"385\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\"><strong data-start=\"353\" data-end=\"372\">APPLICATION FEE<\/strong><br data-start=\"372\" data-end=\"375\" \/>150 EUR<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_toggle][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Social workers are committed to enhancing quality of life; developing the full potential of each individual, group and community in society; and pursuing social justice.
