Program Administration

The School Psychology Program is housed within the Department of Special Education, Rehabilitation and School Psychology, under the College of Education. The program coordinator of the School Psychology Program reports directly to the Department Chair who, in turn, reports to the Dean of the College of Education. Faculty, staff, and students have direct access to the program coordinator, Department Chair and Dean of the College. The program coordinator is responsible for course and staff scheduling, arranging faculty and advisory committee meetings, fielding inquiries regarding the program and addressing and coordinating response to student or staff concerns.

The school psychology faculty is composed of practitioners who have served in public schools, taught at the university level, and conducted research in the area of educational/school psychology. All share in some aspect of program development and coordination. As detailed throughout this document, the faculty of the program hold authority over matters of curriculum and candidate competency. The faculty meets as needed to hear student concerns, to confer with students, and to discuss policy issues related to the program.
