In a rigorous and integrated two-year program, students acquire a strong theoretical grounding in human development, counseling paradigms, and strategies of intervention.

Through the internship, students apply knowledge and gain skills under careful supervision. Upon completion of all requirements, students are awarded the Master of Education degree (M.Ed.).
