SWS-4050 Field Work I

This is the first of a two-semester field placement (internship). Fieldwork provides students the opportunity to apply the knowledge, values, and skills of an entry-level social worker in a practice setting. Students spend approximately 16 hours per week in a structured field placement, coordinated by the BSW program, to fulfill a minimum requirement of 210 hours of practice experience each semester, under the supervision of an agency-based Field Instructor who holds a masters degree in social work. No prior social work experiences will be given credit towards this course. This course is offered in the fall semester only.
