The objective of this program is to train research scholars who will contribute to the understanding of teaching, learning and development; educational accountability and program evaluation; and individual differences in learning and adjustment in educational settings.

The program features areas of study common to degree programs in Educational Psychology, including learning, human development, statistics, measurement and research methods. In addition the program affords a unique opportunity to pursue advanced training in gifted studies, educational program evaluation, educational technology, and neuropsychology.

The emphasis of program training is twofold: to develop the requisite research competence to make significant contributions to the knowledge base in cognate areas of specialization; and to develop the skills necessary to address applied problems in educational settings, particularly with respect to data-driven decision-making and research-based educational applications.

This includes the problem of measurement and assessment in educational accountability; determining curricular and educational program effectiveness; and consultation concerning differentiated instruction for developmental and individual differences. Program graduates will be experts in both core areas of the discipline and cognate areas of specialization; they will be skilled researchers with substantive knowledge of measurement, research design, analysis of data.
