The School of Social Sciences and International Studies (SSIS) is located in the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences.

Our research scholars occupy leading positions in research institutes, academia, and both the public sector and private sector in this country and overseas. We are a lively group of colleagues committed to research, writing and teaching.

The Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences wants to expand its research expertise and enhance its teaching capacity in the Social Work programs, which consist of the Bachelor of Social Work, Master of Couple and Family Therapy, Master of Social Work in Counselling and Master of Social Development. We are therefore looking for an energetic teacher and scholar who will make an effective contribution to research and to teaching, specifically in the Bachelor of Social Work program in the field education courses and in the introductory and advanced practice courses relating to social work with individuals, families and groups.
