Overview
The program requires a minimum of 34 s.h. of graduate credit with no thesis. Prerequisites for some of the required courses may mean that students will need to complete additional course work. Students are expected to maintain a minimum g.p.a. of 2.75 in all work for the degree. Courses are taught year round, and each course covers one month of instruction and one month of no instruction. Students can complete their M.A. in at least 24 months.
The master program degree in Psychological and Quantitative Foundations at The University of Iowa, provides students with education in the theories, research, and scholarship about the principles and foundational knowledge in counseling psychology. Students learn relevant psychological interventions, strategies, and remediation to work with people in order to effectively solve problems, respond to client situations, and plan for the future. Because there is no supervised practicum component to this degree, students who graduate with the M.A. are not eligible to practice counseling psychology or be licensed in the United States. However, students will be qualified to apply for doctoral programs in professional psychology and counseling fields such as clinical counseling, school psychology, counselor education, rehabilitation counseling, and school counseling.
