Become an expert in the field of educational psychology and help children learn in safe, healthy, and supportive environments by earning an Education Specialist (EdS) in School psychology degree from the University of the Pacific. Trained in both psychology and education, you'll be able to apply your interdisciplinary skill-set to evaluate the effectiveness of academic programs, assess students' learning abilities, and partner with educators, parents, and other mental health professionals to help students reach their full potential.
The Educational Specialist in School Psychology program (EdS), offered by Pacific’s Benerd College, is a graduate-level degree and credential program designed to prepare students for a rewarding career as a school psychologist. Typically students begin the EdS program by completing the MA in Counseling Psychology, which provides a foundation in counseling skills for those who wish to enter mental health fields.
