    The School Psychology program is in the Counseling and Psychological Services Department, which is one of six departments in the School of Education. Visit the program admissions page to apply

     

    Program Description

    The School Psychology program provides opportunity for extensive study in both theoretical and applied areas including psychological and educational foundations, systems and organizations, exceptionality, assessment and psychodiagnosis, counseling, consultation, development of interventions and closely supervised practicum and field work experience in school settings. The goal of the training sequence is to equip the student with the knowledge, competencies, and skills necessary for meaningful participation in, and contribution to, the professional practice of school psychology in multicultural contexts.

    Following completion of the program, graduates are eligible to apply to become a Nationally Certified School Psychologist (NCSP) and/or New York State provisional certification as a School Psychologist.

    Prerequisite courses, transfer credit of completed graduate courses, and specialized and individualized needs of the student will be reviewed and assessed following acceptance into the program and assignment of an academic advisor.

    Enter the description for this program as it should appear in the catalog. (Please submit the curriculum/course listing as a file attachment. This section is for a description of the program for the college catalog).
  • Justification for Proposal*

    The School Psychology program prepares students for certification as a NYS School Psychologist. A requirement of that degree is Psy 580 - Advanced Psychological Statistics. The statistics requirement within the department has been taught within the CPS Dept. for many years with CPS 535 – Statistics by computer. We would like this to become part of the official program requirements.  

    This change would be made by substituting CPS 535 for PSY 580.

    Justification: CPS 535 has been taught for years as a replacement for PSY 580, which has not been offered for years.
