Program(s) Philosophy
The philosophy of the faculty is to provide students with comprehensive academic coursework, a variety of experiential components which are in agreement with varied theoretical and philosophical orientations, and a degree of individualization that enhances the student's professional goals and ultimately the professional practice of school psychology. The faculty take their responsibility to socialize students into the profession of psychology seriously. This goal is partially accomplished by frequent faculty interaction with the students, encouraging student membership in APS, NASP, APA, SRCD, and other professional organizations, ensuring numerous opportunities to interact with distinguished psychologists from other universities, and systematically reinforcing student research efforts by providing partial funds to allow student travel for presentations at national and international conventions. In addition, and perhaps most significantly, the program draws heavily on faculty expertise and resources in the on-campus APA approved Clinical Psychology Program, Counseling Psychology program, the Department of Educational Psychology and Instructional Technology, the Department of Psychology (Biopsychology), the Institute for Behavioral Research, Department of Special Education, and to a lesser extent, other related departments. Students are encouraged to participate in informal seminars to discuss and synthesize their knowledge and research interests. The implicit goals which the faculty reinforce are the student's identification with the field and commitment to life-long professional growth.
