How long is each Field Period® experience?

Field Period® is a 140-hour course. Students are required to complete at least 120 on-site hours towards each Field Period® experience and an additional 20-hours will be dedicated to the reflective assignments. Occupational Science students divide their Field Period® courses in half and therefore they complete at least 60-hours in two different settings for each three-credit Field Period®.

Are Field Period® experiences worth academic credit?

Each Field Period® course—which consists of the experience and reflective assignments—is worth three academic credits.  Students should review their Program Evaluations to understand which Field Period® course requirements they must complete for their major. Field Period® courses are graded as pass/fail. A passing Field Period® course will should up as an "S" for "satisfactory" on a student's transcript.

How often should I review my program evaluation?

You should review your program evaluation at least once per term, to make sure you are on track!
