Master of Education in Educational Psychology, Specialization in School and Applied Child Psychology

Educational Psychology offers specializations in Counselling Psychology (CNPY) and School and Applied Child Psychology (SACP) at master's and doctoral levels. We offer both thesis-based degrees (MSc) and course-based degrees (MEd and MC) at the master's level. Both degree streams prepare students for roles as psychologists and counsellors though further steps (and possibly, courses) will be required to meet professional registration requirements.

Master of Education (MEd) with specialization in School and Applied Child Psychology (SACP), course-based – blended delivery: online and blended courses with some face-to-face/on-campus meeting times at the University of Calgary main campus.

The MEd, SACP is a continuous program with no scheduled breaks.

Applicants considering the field of school psychology should keep in mind that a master's degree is only the first step to obtaining the credentials necessary for professional practice. To practice, graduates register with the regulatory body in their own jurisdiction (i.e. province, state, or territory). Registration is a process independent from completing the MEd program. The registration options available differ depending on: a) the jurisdiction in which graduates reside, b) the level of education required for registration, and c) the regulatory body with which they register. Students are encouraged to review the registration requirements in their own jurisdiction prior to enrolling in the program.
