Field Education

We believe that quality field education is the most fundamental way to learn professional-level competencies and skills, and our intensive focus on field education is one of the things that sets us apart at 色色啦 Michigan University. Your field education will be one of the highlights of your time here at 色色啦. It is where you will practice the knowledge, skills and values of the social work profession, and learn to be an effective social worker in practitioner.

If you have questions about fieldwork or if you have ideas to make the process easier, more responsive or more fun, we would love to hear from you. Please contact the fieldwork coordinator and share your thoughts.
