After earning your PhD in school psychology from Loyola, you'll gain essential knowledge, abilities, and ethical principles to begin your career as both a professional school psychologist and research author. You'll develop into a scientist-practitioner capable of applying evidence-based evaluation, treatment, and advisory methods through a social justice lens. Additionally, you'll comprehend school psychology's historical context, including past educational inequalities and their psychological effects, along with how individual diversity and sociocultural factors shape development and adaptation. You'll perform research-backed counseling and mental health services directly, while also providing consultative support in practical environments. Regarding research, you'll analyze studies (including their structure, data processing, and conclusions) from technical, ethical, and social justice viewpoints. With advanced research methodology and statistical knowledge, you'll undertake innovative dissertation projects, share findings at academic conferences, and create articles for professional journals.
