Take PSY 401 (Professional Development) to help you decide which programs to apply to and how to successfully complete your graduate school applications. Do an online search for your area of interest or look at programs offered by the universities you are interested in attending. Look at programs that are linked to Psychology, but may not be housed in Psychology Departments (e.g., Counseling, Clinical Social Work, Mental Health Counseling, Educational Psychology). What graduate programs does Jax State offer? In the Psychology Department, we offer a master's degree in Applied Behavior Analysis (built on the foundations of behavior analysis covered in PSY 220, 221, 354, and 364). In the College of Education and Professional Studies, there is also a degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling to which many psychology majors apply.
