Welcome to the Bachelor of Social Work Field Education website. We hope that the information here will be of assistance to you as you prepare to enter your field placement.
Field practice courses are required courses and successful completion of two Field Practice courses is required for graduation. Extending over two semesters of study (September – May), field placements involve a minimum of 700 hours in supervised field practice in a human service organization or community setting. Undergraduate students complete the field courses in their fourth year. The Field Education Program provides experiential educational opportunities directed toward the development of values, knowledge and skills required for generalist social work practice.
All Undergraduate students must adhere to the Undergraduate Field Education Policies and Standards Manual during their placement. Please print and read the Field Education Policies and Standards Manual (below) carefully prior to your placement.
