The Masters in School Psychology Program embraces a practitioner-scientist model of training in which practice, research, and theory are considered integrated components. The emphasis is on developing applied knowledge in research methods, human growth and development, learning principles, psychopathology, and biological basis of behavior necessary for functioning in the public schools.

The specialist degree in School Psychology, which is between a Masters and a Doctoral degree, is designed to help students achieve licensure from the State of Texas as a Licensed Specialist in School Psychology (LSSP). An LSSP is responsible for providing psychological services to public school children addressing a wide range of behavioral and emotional needs. LSSP coursework combines web-enhanced and on-campus learning, with a two-semester-long internship at the end of the program, which is typically completed in a public school setting.
