Description:

MSW Intermediate Field Instruction internships are designed to give students opportunities to apply social work knowledge, values and skills to practice situations. In this half semester field placement, the principles of intermediate MSW social work practice will be carried out through engagement, assessment, intervention, or prevention activities with individuals, small groups, and families, communities, and organizations. Special emphasis will be placed on more advanced use of self and other interpersonal skills, critical understanding of, and familiarity with differences in social work assessments and medical models of assessment and diagnosis, and place of the helping relationship itself to facilitate change. Students will develop their ability to identify the ways that contexts impact the client's circumstances, with special attention to the ramifications of diversity matters as well as social and economic justice concerns. Critical thinking skills will be called upon to determine optimal ethical intervention strategies and students will be required to use available research to inform practice.
