PsyD School Psychology
The APA accredited School Psychology Doctor of Psychology (PsyD) program offers comprehensive, supervised training and a strong foundation in school psychological theory and clinical practices that are evidence-based, culturally responsive, socially just, and collaborative. The foundational mission of the program is to train culturally responsive school psychologists. All of the courses infuse themes of equity and social justice and include an emphasis on prevention and the ecological influences on behavior. This program is one of only a handful of APA-accredited programs in the country that offers an optional bilingual (Spanish/English) school psychologist concentration and the only one to offer a graduate credential in the Neurosequential Model in EducationTM.
Graduates earn a Doctor of Psychology (PsyD) degree and are eligible for licensure in School Psychology by the Colorado Department of Education. Graduates also have the option of pursuing licensure by the State Board of Psychologist Examiners. Most school psychologists work in public and nonpublic school systems, but they may also be employed by hospital and medical pediatric clinics; universities; community mental health centers; and public policy, public education and health agencies.
