Educational Psychology Bachelor of Arts/Bachelor of Science

Program Description

The BA/BS degree in Educational Psychology will provide students with training and expertise in behavioral and mental health, services desperately needed locally and nationally. The degree differs from other human service degrees in that the course work and work-based learning experiences lead directly to competitive, high demand employment opportunities including certification as an assistant behavior analyst. Other human service degrees focus on the general theory of counseling and mental health; this degree teaches specific individual and group counseling interventions so that students leave with theory and skills. Students will not only be prepared to enter the job market upon graduation, but will also have the knowledge and skills to enter graduate programs within the behavioral and mental health field.
