A counseling psychologist's foundation lies in comprehensive understanding of psychological theories. This broad expertise in general psychology is cultivated primarily through core coursework covering subjects like human learning and memory, animal behavior studies, personality theory, social psychology, psychological measurement, psychology's historical development, biological psychology, lifespan development, brain-behavior relationships, and statistical methods. The core program establishes a framework for research, academic inquiry, and hones assessment and intervention techniques. The program cultivates both critical analysis skills and original contributions to the field. Accordingly, students complete coursework in fundamental and sophisticated statistical and research methodologies. Research participation is mandatory for both master's and doctoral candidates, with continuous engagement promoted. Collaborative research with faculty members is strongly encouraged, as professors maintain diverse specializations spanning practical applications and theoretical investigations.
