The pattern of social work education, of which
field work is an integral part, in our country is in most part borrowed from
the west. Field work is essential relating to the existing conditions at the
agency level- its policies and programs, its resources, personnel, the
supervisory practices etc. It is considered to be an integral part of social
work education. In this process we get opportunity to apply theoretical
knowledge and techniques in the field to meet the social problems. Here some
definitions may be cited given by different scholars.
