School Psychology (MS/CAGS) at Northeastern University

Northeastern University offers a Master of Science in Applied Educational Psychology and a Certificate of Advanced Graduate Study in School Psychology. The entire three-year program (MS and CAGS) has full approval from the National Association of School Psychologists and the Massachusetts State Department of Education. The overarching purpose of the program is to develop highly competent school psychologists. Some students also choose to specialize in either early intervention or applied behavior analysis. The early intervention training option is designed to prepare school psychologists to work with infants and toddlers and their families in community and related agencies, on interdisciplinary teams, and on the transition to school. The applied behavior analysis training option is designed to prepare school psychologists to address the learning and behavioral needs of children and adolescents with challenging behaviors in school, home, and community settings, including children with autism spectrum disorders.
