Field Education credits may be accumulated from summer work or from work that a student is doing in a given semester. The work may be done at an official site, as designated by the Field Placement Office, the Office of the Dean of Students, or from another site where students have elected to work. Field Education is designed to give students practical experience in specific areas of ministry. Credit for this work will be assigned as the students meet requirements for their major areas of study. Each major will award 3 credits for Field Education credit and 3 hours for Internship credit during the student’s career. The Field Education courses will be taken during the first and second year of a person’s academic program.

What are the goals of the Field Education program?

  • To assist students in exercising stewardship over their God-given educational opportunities.

  • To provide technical, practical, and spiritual assistance to local congregations, community organizations, denominations, families, schools, etc., as students fulfill their mission.

  • To aid students in the discovery and application of their spiritual gifts.

  • To take the All Saints message and ministry to the community.

  • To expose students to a wide-range of ministry styles, settings, and programs.

  • To secure mentors for current students.

  • To identify potential sources of employment for students.

  • To treat settings in which students can apply principles of academic theory and practice.

REQUIREMENTS:

Field Education work is required of all students who are currently taking at least nine (9) hours of course work during a given semester. Students who serve as pastors, teachers, praise and worship leaders, department leaders, youth presidents/ministers, and in other ministry capacities should structure their fieldwork around specific assignments. However, a student must officially register for Field Education credit at the beginning of the semester and secure faculty/staff approval and supervision before credit can be awarded for such work.

Areas in which students will be awarded credit for field work in a given major field of study are: Teaching, Counseling, Preaching, and Administration (one credit is given for Teaching, Counseling, and for Preaching, and two credits are given for Administration).

A student’s major area of study must be listed on the Field Education application so that proper credit can be awarded in the area that the credits are to be assigned.

Field Education and Internship (6 Credits)

Students may fulfill their internship requirements either over the course of one summer working full-time or part-time during the last year of their program. The work may be spread out over a period of two semesters. Students must accumulate a total of 450 hours of internship hours in order to fulfill this requirement.

Special Requirements:

* All records and contractual arrangements for fieldwork must be pre-approved by the Dean of Student Affairs.

*** All courses in primary subject areas that are beyond the required number of hours in the program are listed as electives. Students may take these courses or substitute them for others that may apply toward a minor subject area.
