SW 209 Practicum in Social Work
Course provides a close examination of social work method: data collection, assessment, intervention and evaluation. It also focuses on skill development and provides an overview of the various modalities (individual, family, group and community work) used in social work practice. Students learn the value of understanding all human behavior in its environmental context. A concurrent internship in a local community based agency, which offers students direct experience in the field, is also required. The internship is intended to provide students with the opportunity to understand how agencies are organized and how they function on behalf of clients. Students work at an external site for 3 hours a week or more at the instructor’s discretion, determined in relation to other coursework. They keep regular journal entries and prepare a summary report on their experience in the agency.”
