Psychology Field Experience

Catalog description

Students work in a social services setting under the supervision of a qualified professional to develop an understanding of the roles, rules, requirements, and systems in place to assist clients and participants. A consultation supports students doing a minimum of 65 volunteer hours in a professional setting where psychology is utilized to assist others. With instructor support, students identify and secure their Psychology Field Experience site during the previous quarter; and complete paperwork outlining the negotiated duties, responsibilities, and expectations of the roles they will undertake.
