To qualify for a Master of Science in Education or Master of Science degree, a candidate must fulfill satisfactorily the basic requirements of the graduate programs in Counseling and Development. As New York State Education Department requirements change, so must program requirements. All programs in the School of Education were undergoing changes as this bulletin went to press. It is therefore important that students consult with their academic adviser on a regular basis. The Counseling and Development Area employs a modular format in organizing skill areas and competencies.
Modules are units of instruction varying in time and concentration.
Taken as a whole, the modules are fitted together to form a sequential block of learning experiences. As a result of the modular approach, courses must be taken in the order listed in each program, with the exception of electives and fieldwork. Students will plan their programs cooperatively in conference with an adviser.
