Field Internship
During the senior year, social work majors complete a 400-hour field internship in one of several approved agencies in the community. This provides a setting for the development of practice skills in social work and an opportunity for students to integrate classroom learning with practice. Students are charged a minimal social work liability insurance fee. The field director discusses the application process with students in their junior year. No credit is given for prior work experience. Students must complete the internship as part of their degree requirements.
