The M.S.Ed. in Child Psychology program will prepare you to pursue a rewarding career as an educational advocate for children. This 30-credit program includes curriculum to enhance paraprofessional mental health services provided to children in community and school settings. While the Child Psychology degree does not lead to the professional practice of school psychology, other options to advance your career are available to you through this program.
Students in the Child Psychology program who hold certain certificates through the Pennsylvania Department of Education (PDE) can meet Autism Endorsement criteria through the selection of electives.
Students of the Child Psychology program can also meet the Pennsylvania Behavior Specialist License criteria. Child Psychology students can take the Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) Exam preparation course sequence.

Develop and implement functional behavior intervention plans for identified students.
Establish intervention plans for the purpose of providing safe and effective environments for individuals with challenging behaviors.
Become an expert in coordinating child abuse and neglect cases while complying with mandated reporting requirements.
