TheFaculty is one of the pioneering post-graduate institutes in social work education with Master’sDegree in Social Work (M.S.W.) as its focal programme. It was raised to the level of Faculty in1950 and since then is known as the Faculty of Social Work. The institution began with the GenericSocial Work philosophy and approach.

Active and meaningful participation In class-room and seminar discussions, Rural camp andStudy Tour.

Satisfactory performance in each of the theory class-room courses and field work. An acceptable research project report. Successful completion of the viva-voce.

TEACHING OF SOCIAL WORKIn our view, the professional education of post-graduate students should not depend solely uponformal teaching. Where possible therefore, teaching unstructured to allow for the participation ofstudents in the learning process, through discussion, seminar, workshop, some choice of curriculumtopics, etc. Since social work practice draws heavily on peer consultation and support we alsoencourage students to identify and draw upon the knowledge, skills, experience and resourcesavailable within the student group and staff.

Each social work student has regular contact with a social work teacher, who has responsibility formonitoring and supporting the student’s academic progress, and also for planning an appropriatepractice placement programme in consultation with the agaency staff and student. The teacher (fieldwork supervisor) will, in addition to .college based meetings, visit the student during practice place-ments in accordance with well established practice.

A wide range of social work agencies in Baroda city and in the region collaborate with the course tomaintain the high standards of practice, teaching and supervision available to students in their place-ments. Whilest teachers make. every effort to take domestic and personal circumstances intoaccount, their priority will normally be the educational needs of the student.

Teaching ContentAll theory courses are obligatory for all students and are seen as essential components of a socialworker’s basic level of knowledge and skill.

The core course, which is concerned with social work philosophy and method Is complemented bythe parallel courses relating to social work with particular client groups or in particular settings.

In social work education students are required to demonstrate competence in both practice place-ments and course work (including dissertation). Each element has equal weightage and poor perfor-mance in practice placements cannot be compensated by good course work or vice versa.

Dissertation WorkEach student undertakes dissertation work. At the beginning of IInd Semester, he/she is assigned toa Faculty member, under whose guidance he/she prepares a research proposal, methodology, toolsfor data collection, analyse data and prepares the dissertation report. Research guidance continu-ous till fourth semester where the student submits the dissertation. Dissertation work is doneconcurrently with theory courses and field work.

Note : Students are required to abide by OSW 12, rules pertaining to dissertation work andfollow the research calender.

Field Work & Role of the Social Work Teacher in PracticeEach student will be placed in each term for his/her field work in a field work setting (Agency) underthe supervision of a teacher (Field Work Supervisor) it is concurrent with theory classes. The stu-dent is required to work three days with a minimum 20 hours per week.

Each student will be expected to engage with his/her field work supervisor in an appraisal of theappropriate choice for his practice placements. A variety of factors relating to the students needs andpreference will be taken into account, as well as the availability of suitable service staff in agencieswith which they have a working relationship in order to design the field work tasks and learning ofstudent.

Supervisors will normally join students and agency staff in a three-cornered discussion prior to theplacement the purpose of which will be to identify appropriate work content and specific objectives:for .the students learning and performance.

Supervisors also make a mid- placement visit to monitor with student and agency staff the progressof the placement in relation to these objectives and visit again at the end of the placement in order toreview the placement as a whole and identify learning needs for future placement.

Further visit may be made according to the particular circumstances.

Role of the Agency Staff in PracticeThe Department’s expectations are that the agency staff will provide learning opportunities for thestudent. These will include the allocation of cases, other client contact such as groups, and involve-ment in procedures of the agency. Regular and formal meeting sessions are allocated, for discussionand monitoring of the, students programme. At the end of the placement, a report evaluating thestudent’s performance is prepared which will document the strengths and weaknesses in the perfor-mance by reference to the meetings and it will be discussed with the supervisor.

The M.S.W. course proceeds at a measured pace in four terms period. There are two or moreplacements during the course, each of fifteen weeks duration every term for three days every week.

Evaluation of Practice PlacementsStudents undertake placements in a wide variety of settings (rural, urban, institutional, health andIndustry), and the problem of achieving parity in the evaluation of practice has exercised social workeducators for many years.

We expect that agency staff, student, and field work supervisor will work together at the state of eachplacement to determine objectives for the placement and that all subsequent evaluation of perfor-mance, whether formal or informal, will reflect these agreed objectives.

The relationship between student and teacher is a crucial one, involving among other things mutualinformal and formal assessment on a verbal and written basis, demanding trust.

The student submits self evaluation report of the work undertaken during the placement, and thiswork is considered by the Department in a staff meeting together with the independent report fromthe supervisor. The department. in conjunction with teachers, is constantly seeking ways by whichstudent’s competence in practice can be validated and a variety of sources such as joint interviews,

Each of the sequences, like the foundation courses, included contributions from varioussocial sciences and strenuous efforts are made to keep the field orientation at the forefront in theappraisal of their relevance to practice with particular client groups and in particular settings. Addi-tionally the courses build social development and community care orientation amongst the students.

Foundation CoursesThe foundation courses are a prominent feature of the first two terms and present the multi-disciplin-ary framework which is deployed in subsequently. The courses are of two kinds. The first part com-prises a brief examination of social issues (poverty) using the multi-disciplinary framework to struc-ture the analysis. The second has elements Introducing students to perspectives afforded by psy-chology, and sociology, economics and politics, constitution and law. Besides having the overall aimof seeking to develop a critical awareness on the part of students, the foundation courses, will seekto help them:

Gujarat is a highly industrialized state. Alongside there is a long and rich tradition of volun-tary social work, initiated by Gandhian social workers since pre-independence days. Thestate perhaps has the highest number of corporate sponsored charitable trusts workingin the field of social development. Yet, there are serious deficits in the social developmentaudit.

Only 3 percent of the land is under forestation.The census 2001 report has drawn attention to an alarmingly scewed sex ratio of childrenbelow six years. In short, there is an awesome agenda and tremendous scope for socialdevelopment interventions and services.

The social development agencies, both state and voluntary play a significant role in theunderprevileged groups to get access to development opportunities through education,training, direct services and conscientization.

Faculty of Social Work, M.S. University of Baroda conducted a rapid appraisal of informa-tion/knowledge and skills-set needs of development organizations personnel in Vadodaracity. There was a clear demand for training in foundations and practical skills training indevelopment work as well as organsiation administration.

Course Objectives :

This course aims to :1. provide understanding of basic concepts, socio-cultural constraints and strat-

egies of social development interventions in major sectors.2. Introduce the fundamental principles of management of development

organisations
