Field Experiences

The Urban Commitment

The Field Experience Office works with Wheelock students, faculty and site partners to enrich students’ learning and preparation for professional practice through fieldwork, practicum and internship experiences that are interwoven with the academic program. Our students do their field work in schools, hospitals, community agencies and programs primarily in the Boston, Brookline and Cambridge communities. Consistent with our Academic Guiding Principles, the College emphasizes diverse and inclusive settings that build students’ capacity to become professionals who work effectively with all of America’s children and families.
