Admission to Field Placement Internships
During the second year of the program, each student is required to complete a Field Placement, or Practicum in a social service agency. This placement site will be arranged by the Coordinator of Practicum and Field Experience in collaboration with each individual student, aiming to align with the student’s professional goals and development needs. As such, each student will complete a Social Work Field Practicum Application along with an updated portfolio. Students will present their portfolio and subsequently be interviewed by the Coordinator of Practicums and Field Experiences and committee. Field Placement options are discussed and a tentative plan is created for Field Placement based on the student's interest and needs.
