CHSUG3001 Critical Practice Approaches
This unit encompasses a range of approaches that challenge the dominant assumptions upon which societies and welfare practices have been constructed. The unit will take a critically reflective approach to further develop and consolidate students generic knowledge and skills. Students will develop skills to critically reflect on power differences and values and the ways in which it shapes theories and models of practice. It will examine anti-oppressive practice in community and human services and its influences, including social constructivism, postmodernism, critical race theory, intersectionality and structural transformation. Emphasis will be placed on contemporary debates around poverty, inequality, and the role of human services in responding to disadvantage, oppression and marginalisation.
Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) unit fee
A Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) is one that is subsidised by the Australian Government, which means students only pay the student contribution amount of the tuition fee. CSPs are only available to eligible domestic students.
The student contribution amount depends on the unit and how much funding the Government provides. Each unit is classified into a band based on its discipline (which may be different to your overall course discipline).
2025 student contribution amount: $2,124
2025 grandfathered student contribution amount (for students who commenced before 1 Jan 2021*): $997
* If you are a continuing student (who commenced your course before 1 January 2021) you will continue paying the same amount as you would have, had legislative reforms not been implemented for any units that would otherwise have an increased student contribution amount.
