Why study the Bachelor of Human Services?
Human service practitioners help everyday people in need. Professional practice in the human services is complex, challenging and very rewarding because it's about making a real difference in people's lives and building a better world. The Bachelor of Human Services prepares students to work in a range of human service roles with a focus on children and youth, and/or community development. Students will learn about social issues and problems and how they occur, as well as the theory, professional ethics and value base that is the foundation of human service practice. The degree focuses on how best to help people deal with real life difficulties. It is the first step towards a professional career that is exciting and always changing. In order to develop job ready skills and abilities students undertake two professional placements in community-based human service agencies. These work placements help to secure employment for many students and they meet the accreditation guidelines of the Australian Institute of Welfare and Community Workers Inc.
