Applied Psychology in Educational and Community Settings MinorEducational Psychology
College of Education and Human Development
The applied psychology in educational and community settings (APECS) minor is an 18-credit program in the application of psychological theory (systems-ecological, developmental, behavioral, cognitive-behavioral) and scientific findings in educational settings to enhance the academic, social, and emotional competence of youth and adults. Emphasis areas include child/adolescent/adult learning and interpersonal, social, cultural, institutional, and economic contexts that shape cognition, motivation, and performance. Students gain direct experience by enrolling in either a research or community service practicum course. The APECS minor is designed to meet the needs of learners from diverse backgrounds and provide the tools necessary to keep pace with the increasing diversity found in schools and communities.
