Overview
About Psychological and Quantitative Foundations at The University of Iowa

Students are expected to maintain a cumulative g.p.a. of at least 2.75.
The program provides students with basic knowledge of educational measurement and research methodology. Graduates find employment in large school systems, state departments of education, test publishing organizations, and research centers.
