Field work is fundamental to Social Work Education and forms the base for professional development in a student. Learning by doing is the pedagogical approach that is adopted. Field Work training enables the student to integrate theory and practice simultaneously, sequentially and cumulatively inculcating the development of professional competence among them. Field work programme consists of observation visits to the agencies, institutions and community settings, rural camp study tour and  direct practice of social work skills for intervention, under the guidance of professional social  workers in selected placements. Fieldwork thus provides students the opportunity to learn, understand, integrate and apply the different facets of social work practice.
