This emphasis prepares individuals for the professional practice of school psychology. Doctoral-level school psychologists work in public and private school systems, colleges and universities, pre-school and child-development centers and private practice. Typical responsibilities include assessment, diagnosis, consultation, program planning and intervention services to preschool and school-age children with educational, emotional and behavioral problems. This is a professional degree that is aimed at preparing school psychologists for added responsibility in the area of supervision or more in-depth understanding of school psychological practice and research methodology. It is planned to be a continuation of the Ed.S. degree. Certification/licensure as a school psychologist is advisable. If certification has not been met prior to enrollment in the doctoral program, the sequence of courses for the Ed.S. program as outlined in this bulletin must be completed as part of the doctoral program.
