Nationally recognized among the top 25 Educational Psychology degree programs, our Learning and Cognition curriculum provides students and professionals with deep insights into cognitive processes, learning methodologies, and developmental frameworks.

Graduates with an Educational Psychology foundation gain expertise in crafting and assessing learning environments, analyzing research supporting educational interventions, and (for thesis and doctoral candidates) performing original research.
Note that an Educational Psychology degree doesn't qualify graduates for teaching, school counseling, or school psychology licensure. There's often confusion between Educational Psychology and School Counseling or School Psychology - these are distinct professional programs within our Department of Educational Psychology & Learning Systems that do lead to licensure. Those interested in mental health interventions or assessments should explore our School Counseling and School Psychology offerings.
