School psychologists help create learning environments where students, families and school staff feel safe, welcome, and supported. Our program approaches school psychology from an anti-racist scientific-practitioner orientation and will prepare you to become a leader, innovator, and change agent.
Our program has always been on the leading edge of the field. Today, our focus is on practices and systems change to advance justice and equity. As a school psychology student, you'll learn the foundations of psychology and school psychological research. Your training in research-based prevention, intervention, consultation, and assessment will prepare you to work with teachers, caregivers, community members, and staff to help students thrive and to support social justice by dismantling ineffective, harmful systems.
You'll also contribute to the advancement of school psychology practices and policies by creating scholarship that addresses current issues and pushes the field forward. Through two recent grants, we are proud to offer funding for 28 graduate assistantships per year, so learn more today!
