Education and Counseling Graduate Programs
Prepare for Exceptional Leadership Roles in Education and Counseling
Sometimes knowing what to do is a matter of inspiration. Sometimes it’s a matter of necessity. Whatever the case, the College of Education offers graduate programs to support you in elevating your purpose and career in helping others achieve to their best.
Our graduate programs, both in education, counselor education, and counseling psychology, prepare graduate students to be exceptional educational leaders and counseling professionals within their school districts and communities. Through a systematic focus on the social, cultural, philosophical and historical contexts of education, we are committed to the development of professionals as agents of critical inquiry and social justice.
More than ever, the need for teachers, educational leaders and policy makers is great and expansive. As important, the need for professional school counselors in a school setting has also reached a critical peak. Their role in a school setting has become crucial in supporting students socially, emotionally, and academically. Collectively, our graduate programs are designed to strengthen and support educators, develop academically and emotionally strong students, and build better communities. The question is - which program inspires you to take the next step to be part of making a difference?
