Counseling Program Description |
Presently, the Applied Psychology - Counseling Psychology concentration is a 48-credit degree program. Students in this concentration are enrolled in either the Counseling Psychology Track (i.e., the regular course sequence), or one of two specializations (the Practitioner Specialization or the Science Specialization). Following degree completion, students in the Practitioner Specialization, which is accredited by the Master’s in <br>Psychology and Counseling. Accreditation Council (MPCAC; a CHEA-recognized accrediting body), typically transition into UBalt’s Post-Master’s Certificate in Professional Counseling Studies (CPCS) program, where they complete an additional 12 <br>credits so they can obtain the requisite 60 academic credits needed for licensure in the State of Maryland. |
