The Department of Counselor Education prepares students to facilitate human development across the lifespan, to advocate for clients and students, and to serve local, national, and international communities through the delivery and creation of state-of-the-art counseling services. The department achieves these goals by advancing knowledge, skills, and attitudes appropriate for effective and ethical professional counseling practice and by conducting and disseminating related research.
The department prepares practitioners and scholars by offering graduate programs in four major areas within counselor education:
- clinical mental health counseling (offered in the MA);
- counselor education and supervision (offered in the PhD);
- rehabilitation counseling program (offered in the MA); and
- school counseling (offered in the MA).
It also offers basic courses in interviewing and interpersonal skills for students in other professional and graduate programs. In addition, the department offers an undergraduate minor in human relations.
An on-campus counseling suite serves as a laboratory for training. In addition, a wide variety of supervised clinical experiences are available in community agencies, schools, and colleges, as well as throughout the university. Internships may be completed at approved sites nationwide.
Prospective students must meet admission requirements for the individual programs as well as the department's general admission requirements. Criminal background checks may be required.
Applicants to any of the department's degree programs must satisfy the following admission requirements. Applicants also must meet the admission requirements of the Graduate College; see the Manual of Rules and Regulations on the Graduate College website.
Applicants must submit the following:
- a completed graduate application form;

The following admission standards are considered for individual program admission decisions.
