MA Psych Open House - Brattleboro, VT

UNION INSTITUTE & UNIVERSITY TO HOST OPEN HOUSE FOR MASTERS OF ARTS IN PSYCHOLOGY AND COUNSELING MARCH 28

BRATTLEBORO, VT - Union Institute & University (UI&U) will host an open house for those interested in learning more about the university’s M.A. in Psychology & Counseling, from 9 a.m.- noon, Saturday, March 28, at UI&U’s Brattleboro Academic Center. Faculty and staff will be available to discuss the program. A continental breakfast will be served.

The mission of the Master of Arts (M.A.) with Concentrations in Psychology and Counseling program is to educate future psychologists and counselor practitioners to identify and treat psychological problems and issues in a variety of clinical, educational, and workplace settings.

The program is designed specifically to offer the traditional courses and supervised internship experiences that are increasingly required by state and national agencies and credentialing bodies. Working with a team of faculty advisors who hold doctoral degrees and possess relevant practitioner experience, learners engage in critical inquiry, thoroughly examine and interact with the literature, theory, and research, and pursue and share the results of applied research.

Learners who graduate from the counseling psychology or clinical mental health counseling tracks meet course work requirements for national certification by the National Board for Certified Counselors GSA-NCC as a counselor and are eligible to sit for the national exam while in their final term.
