SWK 651 Field Experience II (3 credits)

Hours: 3 classroom + 0 lab/studio
Prerequisite(s): Admission to the MSW program.
Taught: Fall only
This advanced field-based course under faculty direction provides opportunities for students to apply evidence-informed practice skills and theoretical knowledge learned through the advanced curriculum in a field placement with family and children. Advanced field experience is conducted in a com-munity social service agency under supervision of a CSWE-accredited MSW social worker with two-years post-MSW practice experience. Social work students complete 300 clock hours within the semester to increase their ability to demonstrate advanced competencies in social work practice. A three-hour class seminar taken concurrently with the student’s field placement, builds on the student’s advanced social work practice behaviors. It is designed to provide the opportunity for integration of the advanced curriculum learning competencies, with emphasis on addressing those specific advanced content areas of competence and accompanying practice behaviors.
