Counseling Master of Science

Description

The Master of Science in Counseling is 60 credits in length and has one specialization area: Clinical Mental Health Counseling. Students are required to complete 14 core courses, one 3-credit practicum and a 6-credit internship (split across two terms). Students also complete 3 courses of elective work. Electives are rotated either yearly or every other year to ensure that students have an opportunity to take the electives that best meet their career goals and/or licensure requirements.

The Counseling program also offers Graduate Certificate programs in Expressive Arts Therapies (EAT), Nature- based Counseling (NBC), and Adventure-Based Counseling (ABC). Interested students are encouraged to concurrently enroll in the Master of Science in Counseling and one of these certificate areas so that they can integrate both curricula into their educational experience.
