The PhD in school psychology prepares leaders in the field who will be able to apply the principles of educational psychology, psychology, and child psychology to the professional practice of school psychology within school and community settings. Irrespective of major, all doctoral students within the school psychology program share core program requirements while also provided opportunities to develop their areas of specialization and interest by drawing on resources across departments. The Ph.D. program in school psychology, including coursework, field placement experiences, and research experience, is designed to develop leaders in program development, consultation, and research and evaluation. As such, each institution will have admissions requirements particular to that school, but the majority have their previous course work within the field of psychology to include school psychology at the masters level, educational psychology, child development, etc.
