Counselor Education: Doctoral Degree Program
The doctoral program in Counselor Education [Ph.D.] is designed to provide a balance of intellectual and experimental learning toward the goal of multiple competence as a psychological theorist, researcher, and problem solver in human development.
 |
Doctoral students will typically work closely with faculty in designing, implementing and evaluating innovative educational solutions for important human problems. Generally this means an emphasis on problems of intervention, usually in a natural setting [field-based] as opposed to a laboratory experimental methods. In this sense, the distinction is between basic and field-based research. |
Graduates typically find employment as professors of counselor education, higher education directors for student development, school guidance supervisors and staff developers, educational trainers in industry and human service agencies, counseling center supervisors, and career development specialists.
