The Department of Educational & Counseling Psychology is multidisciplinary and devoted to research, teaching, and service in the use of psychological principles to promote lifelong growth, learning, and development in multiple life roles and contexts. Four disciplines are represented in the department: Counseling Psychology, Educational Psychology and Methodology, School Psychology, and Special Education.
We welcome the energy and inquiry our new faculty and staff bring to the School of Education. Their research includes AI supporting students and teachers, educational practices and policies, higher education experiences and outcomes, the power of mindfulness on resilience and well-being of educators and students, and more.
We recently caught up with Dolores Cimini to learn more the compulsive side of sports betting and resources that are available to assist those struggling to curb problematic gambling behavior.
