Practicum Education
Through practicum education, students complete academic internships in an agency in the community, where they learn and practice increasingly advanced social work skills alongside veteran social workers who supervise them. Students also take an accompanying practice course and practicum seminar where they can debrief and learn from their internship experiences.
The Steve Hicks School partners with hundreds of agencies and professional social workers in Austin and beyond to provide structured, experiential learning opportunities for BSW and MSSW students, build capacity in the community and advance social justice. Agencies in central Texas and beyond are eager to host Longhorn social work interns because of their high caliber and the programmatic support that the Steve Hicks School provides.
