The Educational Psychology Graduate Program

We offer two degrees in Educational Psychology: the Master of Arts (without thesis) and the Doctor of Philosophy. The requirements for both of these degrees allow for a great deal of flexibility. Students work closely with their adviser to define a program that matches their goals and interests.

The subject matter of the scholarly discipline of educational psychology is teaching and learning, particularly in formal settings such as schools. Educational psychologists study important topics such as intelligence, learning styles, child development, classroom learning, learning and technology, and motivation in educational settings.
