The doctoral Program is a
vertically integrated sequence of coursework and fieldwork experiences that
subsumes the entire specialist-level curriculum (required for credentialing
by the Maryland State Department of Education) and additional work in
psychological foundations, statistics, direct interventions, student-chosen
electives, pre-internship fieldwork, and the pre-doctoral internship. Upon
completion of the specialist-level requirements, students are awarded a
Masters degree as they continue to work toward the Ph.D. Upon completion of
the pre-doctoral internship students can earn the Advanced Graduate
Specialist Certificate (AGS) and become eligible for full certification by
the Maryland State Department of Education as a School Psychologist. Upon
completion of all Program requirements, including dissertation, students
earn the Ph.D. degree, and are eligible for licensure. The Program
typically requires four years of full-time, graduate study in coursework
and fieldwork prior to the pre-doctoral internship. Students are strongly
encouraged to begin dissertation work prior to beginning internship.
Consistent with the Program's training model, coursework, research
experiences, and fieldwork are ordered to allow for sequential development
of competencies, and integrated to stress the theme of integrating practice
and research
