Subject: new Educational Psychology, Measurement, & Evaluation program at University of Louisville
To: Saad Chahine <saad.c...@gmail.com>


A new program in Educational Psychology, Measurement, and Evaluation (EPME) has been established at the University of Louisville. Housed in the Department of Educational and Counseling Psychology, the program is aimed at students who are interested in conducting educational research in a variety of contexts, including academia, private research foundations, government agencies, and foundations.  It prepares students to enhance the knowledgebase of educational research and assessment by synthesizing interdisciplinary coursework, training, and fieldwork to answer the question of what works in schools – as well as how, under what conditions, and for whom.
 
The EPME program was constructed to provide students with a "toolbox" of advanced theoretical, methodological, and statistical skills; rich, applied research experiences in complex educational settings, specifically school reform settings; intensive faculty mentoring; a systemic awareness of educational policy and reform contexts; and professional development opportunities.  All experiences in the program are focused on the comprehension and solution of problems using large datasets and real districts, schools, and classrooms as mechanisms for learning.
 
Applications are due January 15 for full consideration or February 28 if financial assistance is not requested and space is still available in the program.
 
More information about the program and the application process can be found at the program’s website: http://louisville.edu/education/degrees/phd-cps-epme.html
