Master of Social Work Field Education Department What do we do? The primary role of the Master of Social Work (MSW) Field Education Department is to match students in the graduate social work program with approved internship sites and supervisors as well as recruit sites, to orient supervisors to Lesley's social work program, and provide ongoing support and troubleshooting around any concerns that arise during the internship experience. When are we available? Monday – Friday, 9:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m., although individual appointments should be scheduled, as the director's schedule may fluctuate at times. Where can you find us?
