How will I arrange field education time around a full-time job?
Most students do their field placements at their places of employment and incorporate most of the 10-14 hour weekly requirement into their regular work week. The total commitment for field placement is four periods over three years totaling 1,184 hours, lasting from Spring of the first academic year until Spring of the third academic year. Advanced standing status requires three periods, and the commitment over two years totals 1008 hours. The schedule for field work is somewhat flexible and mutually agreed upon by student, employer, and field instructor.
