700 Park Avenue, Norfolk, VA 23504-8000
The Norfolk State University is currently revamping their M.A. program in Community/Clinical Psychology due to changes in the requirements set forth by the licensing and certification boards throughout the United States. Restrictions and greater focus on the counseling side of psychology licensing has caused NSU to review the curriculum, during which time admissions to the program have been suspended. The MACCP course was previously a two year program during which students would train for 40 credit hours with the ability of adding a thesis, and two practicum options. In order to qualify for licensing, 60 credit hours are required, which means that further education is necessary for licensing. [full profile]

The Old Dominion University's Master of Science program utilizes a curriculum which has been designed to supply a strong foundation in research methodology as well as psychology in the most general sense. This presents students with a vast supply of options for their professional career choices. An MS Psychology degree does not license any student as a practicing psychologist in the Virginia Commonwealth, but some courses do supply relevant training in the professional world, which can strengthen a weak resume before continuing into a doctoral program. Throughout the study term students are required to work on professional level activities in the department alongside a faculty member. This can involve work in the subject of human factors, social behavior, cognitive processes, industrial psychology, and community. [full profile]

Virginia Commonwealth University offers graduate degrees in psychology through a variety of different specializations. Although it helps to apply with an undergraduate based in a field of Psychology, many students entering Masters Degrees in Psychology come from other academic foundations such as English or Philosophy. Graduate students are expected to complete their program through full-time studies and aren't permitted to apply for external jobs due to the amount of time and energy required to successfully complete a Master's degree. Over the first three years graduate students do receive finances through the program in exchange for work in the form of an apprenticeship. [full profile]

Through Virginia State University, you can study towards an MS in Psychology. The focus is on one of the two areas, which is either general or clinical psychology. The courses conclude both practical and thesis, which must both be completed in order to finish the degree. One of the reasons why Virginia is so popular is because they focus on individual students and their strengths. This means that outstanding students may be offered a college training position upon completion, but also that each student will receive individual attention in order to make sure they develop a program most suitable to their needs.
