The Ed.S. Program in Educational Psychology

The Ed.S. in Educational Psychology was developed to enhance students' knowledge of human development, learning, and motivation as well as knowledge about behavior problems in the school setting that interfere with academic achievement. Students may pursue one of three Ed.S. programs (i.e., Learning Specialist, School Behavior Specialist, Gifted and Creative Education), each of which has distinct goals as detailed below. However, the core course requirements are the same for all programs.

Admission Requirements

Candidates for the Ed.S. program must have the minimum undergraduate grade point average and total GRE score required by the graduate school. Candidates are expected to have completed the M.A. or M.Ed. degree. Candidates' admission to the Ed.S.program, as administered by a specific program, is decided by the faculty of that program. A majority decision of the faculty is required, and a faculty member within the specialty program must agree to serve as temporary advisor.
