Program Overview
- Program Description:
The mission of the Master of Science in School Psychology Program is to develop competent school psychologists skilled in diagnosing problems and implementing successful, evidence-based solutions to support the academic, social, emotional, and physical wellbeing of the children they serve. Coursework and fieldwork experiences provide a combination of the necessary theoretical and applied approaches in developmental, cognitive, biological, social, and behavioral areas. Graduates of the program are well prepared to function as school psychologists in multiple roles including treatment, assessment and consultative modalities with diverse populations. Most students take three or four years to complete the carefully structured sequence of courses, which includes two field experiences—a 400-hour practicum, and a 1,200-hour internship.
