SWK-562 Social Work Field Placement and Seminar III

This course is a continuation of the generalist social work field placement (SWK-561) accompanied by a seminar. The weekly synchronous seminar provides opportunities for students to discuss and demonstrate application of knowledge, values, skills, critical thinking, and management of emotions, with particular emphasis on human rights, social, economic, and environmental justice in the context of generalist social work practice. Students teach each other about fields of practice and provide a support system. Required time spent in the agency is 12.5 hours per week for 8 weeks. The generalist field experience requires a total of 400 hours accumulated over the course of four field and seminar courses. A minimum of 100 hours must be completed in this third generalist field placement course. Prerequisite: SWK-561
