The faculty is involved in a wide range of different research topics and there are many ongoing programs you can choose to be part of. Many students choose other research issues of particular interest or value to them, and are assisted by the faculty. Many graduate and undergraduate students become authors on publications. Many of our students publish articles while at UWF, often as senior author. Publications greatly help students get into doctoral programs, attain desired employment, and receive research funds.
Internships give graduate students practical experience.
Students particularly like this component of our program and it often greatly increases employability. The Counseling program follows licensing and accreditation requirements. There is continual debate and change in issues and requirements relative to the licensing of MA-level professionals. We follow these changes and adjust our program accordingly. Many UWF students go on to doctoral programs or degree-related employment .
