Description

Subject Area: Social Work

This is the first of two field placements which are mandatory components of the BSW. Students are allocated to a social welfare agency to undertake field-based learning under the supervision of an academic and qualified field educator. Placements occur in a range of traditional and contemporary settings and contexts, such as hospitals, local governments, state and federal government departments, as well as non-government, community based organisations. Performance is monitored and assessed by the University, in consultation with the field educator and student. This placement begins in early February with a five-week full-time block period, then reduces to three days a week during Semester 1.
