Field Education Program

Field assignments provide students with a broad range of experience in working with individuals, families, couples, groups, and communities. Students are assigned to two separate supervised internships over the course of their study toward the B.S.W. or M.S.W. degree that complement their professional goals and interests. Students in the Bachelor of Social Work program complete a minimum of 200 hours of internship in their junior year, and a minimum of 400 hours in their senior year. Students in the Master of Social Work program complete a minimum of 600 hours per year. M.S.W. students enrolled in the One-Year Residency (O.Y.R.) are required to complete a single 900-hour internship in their advanced year of study.
