Program Overview

Students learn intervention techniques and counseling skills appropriate for helping individuals. They learn how behavior patterns develop, and about the connection between an individuals' neurobiological, interpersonal, cultural, community, and societal processes. Research and statistics courses familiarize students with basic concepts in experimental design and analysis.

The program prepares students for employment in a wide variety of social service or therapeutic settings in administration, education, child welfare settings, research and human service agencies in positions such as a counselor, personnel interviewer, case manager, market researcher, test administrator, research assistant, or rehabilitation worker.

Students also pursue graduate programs in areas such as clinical or counseling psychology, school psychology, organizational psychology, social work, hospital administration, public health, and criminal justice.
