Social workers need to have an understanding of relevant social research methods but must also be capable of implementing these methods to produce research outcomes of significance. This is a capstone (final) unit that synthesises the knowledge and skills gained across your degree, in particular your learning in SWN019 Research Skills for Social Work. Within this unit you will design and implement a research project in a rigorous and ethical manner. This research project is a major scholarly endeavour and serves as a critical component of the capstone experience as it assesses the application of your 'whole of course' knowledge, skills and values and aligns with the completion of your final placement and your Professional Learning Plan.","title-full":"SWN020 Practice Research Project","title-short":"Practice Research Project","url":{"current":"https://qutvirtual4.qut.edu.au/group/student/enrolment/units/unit?unitCode=SWN020&year=2025","prospective":"https://www.qut.edu.au/study/unit?unitCode=SWN020","timetable":"https://qutvirtual3.qut.edu.au/qvpublic/ttab_unit_search_p.process_teach_period_search?p_unit_cd=SWN020"},"year":2025,"years":[2024,2025]}
