Social Work Admin Information

Students in the social work administration and advocacy practice concentration at the advanced level of the program complete 720 clock hours of field practicum over the course of the fall and spring semesters. They are in one continuous field practicum for 24 hours a week over the course of 30 weeks. The “SWAAP” practicum is intended to provide students with more in-depth experience in program development, outcome evaluation, policy analysis, personnel issues, and budgeting/grant-writing. Students are placed in agencies of all sizes to learn skills at the micro, mezzo, and marco level of administration. Typical settings range from small non-profits to state, regional and federal organizations.
