It is a hybrid program, combining the child centered philosophy of elementary certification with a content specialization more typical of secondary certification. Middle school majors earn certification in one or more content areas for grades 5-9.

Master of Education in Counseling, emphasis in School Counseling

The School Counseling specialty area prepares students to work as school counselors in elementary or secondary settings. Students are trained to apply principles of learning, human development, counseling, research, and measurement within the schools.
