Overview

Master's level professional entry-level training is offered in the School Psychology program at University of Maryland, which prepares students to become school counselors in elementary, middle, and high school settings.

School counselors are leaders, advocates, and systemic change agents who provide individual and group counseling to school-aged children, develop and implement comprehensive developmental school counseling programs, and collaborate with all key stakeholders, including classroom teachers, school administrators, parents, and community members, to ensure the academic, personal-social, and college-career development of students.

The CoPE programs have excellent cooperative relationships with on-campus facilities, such as the Counseling Center and Health Center.
