Program(s) Philosophy
The aim of the NC State School Psychology Program is to develop behavioral scientists who apply their broad-based knowledge and skills to identify and solve psychological and educational problems in the schools and other settings in which children and adolescents actively participate. In addition to preparing professionals to intervene directly with children and adolescents, the Program emphasizes prevention through consultation and education activities with parents, teachers, and other caregiving adults. The Program's theoretical orientation is cognitive-behavioral within an ecological perspective, an emerging orientation that some have termed "ecobehavioral." With a student-to-faculty ratio of approximately 5:1, close working relationships between the Program's faculty and students are encouraged and expected.
As one of five doctoral programs in the NC State University’s Department of Psychology, the School Psychology Program provides training within the scientist-practitioner model. The scientist goal is met through an integration of practice, theory, and research in course content, readings, field experiences, and research requirements. The practitioner goal is met through supervised field experience in assessment, intervention, and consultation involving students, parents, teachers, school administrators, and other professionals.
