Field Education and Seminar
Students must complete the application process prior to entering the Field Experience and Seminar courses. Across both program options, the Director of Field Education will provide the student with a referral to an agency for an interview. Students in the Social Work program are required to complete a minimum of 440 400 hours of supervised field experience at selected public, nonprofit, and for-profit human service agencies in North Carolina. Prior to enrollment in SOWK 444 and SOWK 445, Field Experience and Seminar I & II, students must have completed liberal arts, general education, pre-professional, and professional social work courses as outlined in the Social Work curriculum. Across both program options, the Social Work program has a concurrent placement model in field education. For both program options, the concurrent placement model requires students to complete 220 200 hours of supervised field education experience at selected human service agencies during the Fall and Spring semesters. For Program Option 1: Main Campus, students are in their selected field agencies for two days (Tuesday and Thursday) for approximately 14 hours per week. For Program Option 2: Off-Site Campuses, students are in their selected field agencies in the evenings and weekends. Only students that are a part of institutions with Articulation Agreements and have an Associate’s Degree in Human Services Technology are eligible for this program option. Across both program options, failure to successfully complete both courses in an academic year will require the student to repeat the entire process e.g. complete the application process, attend the pre-orientation meetings, and complete the interview to be placed at an agency. The student will not have to repeat the individual course, but he/she will be placed at a new agency. Students who do not satisfactorily complete Field Experience and Seminar forfeit hours earned and must reapply. Incomplete (I) grades are not given for SOWK 444 and SOWK 445 except in extreme extenuating circumstances. Students who are readmitted to Field Experience and Seminar are assigned to new agencies. All students must earn a grade of “C” or higher in all required Social Work courses in order to graduate with the BSW Degree. In addition to the agency placements, students are required to attend and participate in a weekly seminar class. The seminar class is instrumental in guiding students in the field education process. The seminar classes also provide students the opportunity to discuss their agency experiences and to integrate Social Work knowledge, values, skills, cognitive and affective processes, and the program competencies with the field experience. In addition, the students will purchase liability insurance and complete a background check. Failure to apply will result in students not being considered for field education. Students employed in human service agencies will not be allowed to use their employment or work experiences as a substitute for their field education placements.
