The Department of Educational Psychology, College of Education
offers a
Community Counseling Program of 49 semester hours leading
to the Master of
Education (M.Ed.) Degree. Because counselor training essentially
begins at the
graduate level, students from various undergraduate academic
backgrounds will
likely qualify for this program. A doctoral program in Counseling
Psychology is
also offered by the Department of Educational Psychology within
the University of
Oklahoma.
