Field Matching

The Field Placement Coordinator uses the following criteria to place students:

  • interest and preference for a particular field of practice
  • work, training, or volunteer experiences
  • learning objectives & style
  • learning needs as assessed by Field Coordinator.
  • student/placement fit (student can meet the agency requirements, no conflicts of interest)

The School of Social Work supports the requirements of some social services agencies, departments, or organizations for a criminal records check, various health tests, x-rays, or inoculations. Students unwilling to meet these requirements will not be eligible for these placements.
