Welcome to the School Psychology Programs website. There are two programs in school psychology. The Master of Arts/Educational Specialist degrees program is designed for persons seeking non-doctoral preparation for practice as a school psychologist, primarily in public school settings. Students complete the MA degree of 36 semester hours and then enter the EdS degree level for an additional 30 semester hours including an internship. The MA/EdS program is jointly sponsored by the Department of Psychology and the College of Education, and usually takes three years to complete. Graduates obtain a credential to practice as a school psychologist from the Tennessee State Department of Education or similar agency in other states. More than 120 program graduates now serve as school psychologists in the Mid-South Region and across the United States. The program is approved by the National Association of School Psychologists and formally accredited as part of the education unit at the University of Memphis by the National Council for the Accreditation of Teacher Education.
