How do I become a psychologist?

A psychologist is a doctoral trained professional. Rutgers GSE offers a 33-credit master’s degree program in counseling psychology. This program prepares students with general knowledge in the field of psychology with a focus on the specialty of counseling psychology.

Presently, Rutgers GSE does not offer doctoral study in counseling psychology. For distinctions between a psychologist and a counselor and for general information on training as a psychologist, licensure and careers visit All Psychology Schools at www.allpsychologyschools.com.
