Our Educational Psychology program emphasizes cultivating expertise in research, evaluation, and measurement (REM) to conduct both theoretical and applied investigations. Established in 2009, WSU's College of Education Learning and Performance Research Center (formerly known as the Assessment and Evaluation Center) serves as a hub for advancing educational research through leadership, training, and innovative solutions at institutional, state, national, and global scales. Graduate assistantships within the center allow students to bridge theory and practice by implementing evaluation methods and psychological measurement techniques in real-world educational contexts through collaborations with schools, government entities, and social service providers. Professionals excelling in this discipline possess robust methodological competencies, research acumen, program development capabilities, effective communication skills across diverse professional settings, and the capacity to navigate workplace complexities. The program fosters a dynamic, cross-disciplinary learning environment through faculty-student collaborations, aligning with psychology's scientist-practitioner model by mandating doctoral candidates to combine academic coursework with hands-on internship experiences relevant to their specialization.
