This document is used to obtain information from agencies interested in providing field placement opportunities to the University of Memphis Social Work students.  This form will also inform potential field agencies about some of the CSWE requirements for field programs. Field education and field placement activities are an integral part of social work education.  Field is important in that it gives students the opportunity to gain experience in the field prior to graduating from their Social Work programs. Student engagement in the field helps to increase their knowledge and link concepts taught in the classroom to the clinical/applied setting.

We are excited that you are interested in becoming a potential Field Placement site for the University of Memphis School of Social Work! Please fill out the information below and we will be in contact shortly. Please note, this form is NOT a contract or clinical affiliation agreement. This form is the first of several steps in order to begin the process of clinical affiliation between your agency and the University of Memphis' School of Social Work.

You can find specific requirements of the agency, field instructors, and students in our Field Handbooks on our website: https://www.memphis.edu/socialwork/students/field.php
