Index:  

The activities of scholars and professionals in the Gevirtz Graduate School of Education are woven together by a common thread: a commitment to reshaping schooling from kindergarten through twelfth grade so that all children in our diverse society have knowledge and abilities to become competent and responsible citizens. The Gevirtz Graduate School of Education (GGSE) goals are to produce and disseminate new theories and knowledge, and provide guidance and experience needed to allow our graduate students to reach their full potential as researchers and practitioners. Graduate students in the Gevirtz Graduate School of Education benefit from the wide range of faculty interests and research, and from opportunities to work closely with faculty to research and study in depth a chosen area of work.

The faculty, students, and staff of the Gevirtz Graduate School of Education are actively engaged in numerous K-12 and community-based research efforts, currently supported by nearly $3 million of extramural support. These research efforts are assisted by the GGSE Office of Research and provide financial support as well as training for our students.

The Gevirtz Graduate School of Education offers advanced degrees and credentials as indicated in the table in this chapter. A complete list of degrees and programs offered in the School appears in the Academic Units section. Program offerings are subject to available funding.

Graduate Student Association

The Gevirtz Graduate School of Education has an active Graduate Student Association in Education (GGSAE) officially representing the "student voice" to the GGSE and the UCSB community. It is a body where students work and meet together to address pertinent issues. In addition to addressing issues of an administrative, academic, or political nature, students involved in GGSAE promote a positive "student life", encouraging participation and mutual support among students. The goals are to make participation rewarding, challenging, and supportive; to be a representative, democratic, and participatory organization where decisions are made by consensus, where all members have a voice in decision making, and where the body represents all student voices; to have a cooperative and open relationship with the faculty and staff, based on mutual respect; and to aid the GGSE in its responsibility to recruit and support diverse and underrepresented populations.

Minor in Education

The Gevirtz Graduate School of Education offers an Education and Applied Psychology Minor. The minor is designed for students who want to work with research faculty and learn more about issues confronting education, for students preparing for a teaching career in elementary or secondary education or exploring a career in education, and for students exploring a career in counseling, clinical or school psychology. The minor requires a minimum of 18 units including three core courses (one of which must be a practicum) and electives. There are three tracks in the minor: General Education, Teacher Preparation and Applied Psychology (Counseling, Clinical and School Psychology). For additional information, contact the GGSE Student Affairs Office, (805) 893-2137.

Degree and Credential Programs

The Department of Education offers two doctoral degrees: the doctor of philosophy in education; and the doctor of philosophy in counseling/clinical/school psychology, as well as a combined M.A./Ph.D. degree. As of fall 2003, a joint doctoral program (Ed.D.) in Educational Leadership with Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo, will be available through the Department of Education. Students admitted to an M.A./Ph.D. program may elect to exit the program with completion of the master's, except for the Ph.D. in Counseling/Clinical/School Psychology. The Ph.D. programs prepare highly capable individuals to perform as scholars and skilled professionals in their chosen fields.

The Department of Education also offers the master of arts and the master of education degrees in selected emphasis areas. Master's degree programs are designed to enhance academic and research competencies of elementary or secondary school teachers and other educational leaders. Previous teaching experience is required for some emphases. Advanced credentials may be pursued in addition to the master's degree in some emphases.

In addition to departmental requirements, candidates for graduate degrees and credentials must meet the University degree requirements found in the Graduate Education at UCSB section.

Degree Requirements

Students must achieve a grade-point average of 3.0 to be awarded a graduate degree. There is no language requirement. However, when advisors deem it suitable for a candidate's field of study, an appropriate level of foreign language competency may be required.

After completion of coursework, M.A. and M.Ed. candidates are expected to take a final comprehensive examination, or complete a thesis or project. M.A. and M.Ed. candidates must complete 30 or more units of upper-division and graduate level course work (with a minimum of 20 graduate units) under the thesis option, or 36-48 units of upper-division and graduate level course work (with a minimum of 24 graduate units) under the non-thesis option. Independent study units numbered 597-599 are ineligible to be counted in these totals. Students admitted to the M.A./Ph.D. are periodically evaluated for their readiness to progress to the Ph.D. level of study. Continuation is based on success in the master's program, suitability of goals, and anticipated success in the Ph.D. program.

No specific total number of course units is prescribed for a doctoral degree. Particular requirements will be made by faculty advisors in cases where students need specialized skills in foreign language or other areas. Doctoral students must pass qualifying examinations to be advanced to candidacy. Doctoral candidates must conduct original research and write an acceptable dissertation to be awarded the Ph.D.

Residence Requirements

Three quarters of registration are required for the master's degree. The minimum residence requirement for the Ph.D. is two years spent in full-time study and research. Two consecutive quarters of enrollment in the UCSB Summer Session can be used to count toward one regular quarter of registration. A minimum of three consecutive quarters of residency must be completed in regular sessions before advancement to candidacy.

Counseling/Clinical/School Psychology Program (CCSP)

The Counseling/Clinical/School Psychology Program offers courses of study leading to the Ph.D. with an emphasis in either counseling psychology, clinical psychology, or school psychology, or a master of education (M.Ed.) in education with an emphasis in school psychology. An M.A. or M.Ed. (non-terminal), open only to continuing CCSP students completing the Ph.D., is also available. Ph.D. students may also pursue an optional emphasis in human development. The emphases in clinical psychology, counseling psychology, or school psychology, share knowledge bases and core skills. The UCSB Counseling/Clinical/School Psychology Program has been accredited by the American Psychological Association (APA) since 1991. The Ph.D. program is designated and approved as a combined Professional Psychology program and follows a scientist-practitioner model of training. During the first year, students take a set of courses that are designed to provide basic preparation in these common domains. Beginning in the second year and increasingly thereafter, each student selects courses that comprise a specialization in either counseling, clinical, or school psychology.

Submission of a completed background questionnaire (sent with application materials) is required in addition to the regular application materials. Interviews will be scheduled for qualified applicants who meet admission criteria and have interests well suited to faculty interests. Alternatives to the interview may be arranged for those unable to attend due to excessive distance.

School Psychology Emphasis (M.Ed.)

Students pursuing a degree in education with an emphasis in school psychology focus upon the implications of research findings in psychology and education for psychological services primarily in school settings. The school psychologist is viewed as pivotal in the provision of comprehensive support services to teachers, students, and parents. Comprehensive support service includes prevention, assessment, and intervention programs for all children. A primary objective is to train school psychologists to enhance the learning and development of students and to assist those who are at risk or in need of special education services. Students are admitted to an M.Ed. degree in Education and the Pupil Personnel Services credential with specialization in school psychology, approved by the California Commission on Teacher Credentialing and the National Association of School Psychologists. Students enrolled in other education programs may also petition to add this credential option, with admission contingent upon space availability.

The Program in Education

The Graduate Program in Education is built around an active community of scholarsstudents, faculty and staffwho are committed to the common goal of reshaping schooling so that all children in our diverse society will have the knowledge and abilities to become competent and productive citizens. Graduate students in the Program benefit from a wide range of faculty interests and research endeavors, and from opportunities to work closely with faculty to explore rigorously, through research and study, a chosen area of work.

The Education Program offers six different but complementary M.A. and Ph.D. emphases in the areas of research, development, and practice. Beginning fall 2003, a joint Ed.D. with Cal Poly San Luis Obispo will be offered.

Cultural Perspectives and Comparative Education Emphasis (CPOE)

The major purpose of this emphasis is to foster students' understanding of how cultural processes influence learning, development, and education in both school and non-school settings. The emphasis offers a multidisciplinary perspective that brings anthropological, linguistic, psychological, and sociological theories to studies of cultural contexts of education. Areas of specific focus include studies of learning, development, and education in multilingual and multicultural populations, and in students from underrepresented groups, within national and/or international settings. Through research, teaching, and community service, the members of this emphasis seek to improve educational opportunities at a local and national level.

Child and Adolescent Development Emphasis (ECAD)

The Child and Adolescent Development Emphasis focuses on age-related changes throughout the lifespan and their implications for education. Faculty are committed to a model of development spanning multiple settings (cultural groups, historical periods, neighborhoods, activities) to find commonalities as well as differences in human behavior. They are interested in the transactional relations among macrosocial, cultural, and biological influences on development. Issues of diversitycross-cultural, cross-national, and genderare a major focus of faculty research.

The core group of students will be grounded in theory and research on the major domains of study: cognitive, language, and social development. Students will be presented with a range and variety of theoretical perspectives on human development. However, students are also expected to look both beyond core requirements and outside of the Department of Education for additional training in research and theories that address their particular research interests.

Educational Leadership and Organizations Emphasis (ELO)

This emphasis prepares students who will teach and conduct research in institutions of higher education, assume leadership positions in educational organizations, and work in government and non-profit agencies that conduct policy analysis and evaluation research. ELO stresses a balanced focus on disciplined-based theory, an understanding of education in its social and political context, and skills for framing and conducting evaluation and research. ELO also provides professional training for those seeking careers in school administration.

The ELO curriculum prepares students who will take positions in academic or policy organizations with strong analytical and research skills as well as an understanding of the "real world" circumstances that shape the policies and educational practices they study. At the same time, ELO combines an emphasis on content knowledge and practical leadership skills needed by effective educational administrators, while also stressing theoretical and research skills that will make them better problem-solvers and users of valid professional knowledge.

Opportunity to Combine Administrative Services Credential (ASC) with M.A. or Ph.D. programs

UCSB is unique among institutions in the Central Coast that offer students an opportunity to pursue either an ASC Tier I or Tier II Credential and be enrolled in a first rate Ph.D. or M.A. degree program. See ASC program descriptions listed under Service Credentials.

UCSB/Cal Poly Joint Doctoral Program in Educational Leadership (Ed.D.)

The purpose of the Ed.D. program is to provide advanced graduate-level study of educational leadership concepts and their application to schools and school agencies. The program is deliberately designed as a collaborative endeavor among Cal Poly, UCSB, and school partners, blending theoretical and research perspectives with practical application to address authentic problems. Graduates from this program will typically pursue employment in leadership and administrative roles in K-12 schools, community colleges, universities, government agencies, and other allied organizations.

The Ed.D.curriculum will equip students with a broad understanding of extant research and theory on leadership, as well as professional knowledge and problem-solving approaches relevant to education. Students will be trained to use research to solve educational and organizational problems; to design, develop, implement and evaluate educational policies and programs; and to effectively manage learning and instructional programs in K-16 organizations. The Ed.D. program will also offer students the option of completing coursework that will enable them to qualify for the Professional Administrative Services Credential from the California Commission on Teacher Credentialing.

Research Methodology Emphasis

This emphasis is intended to prepare students to be research methodologists who will be able to work successfully in universities, private research organizations, and government agencies. A goal of the Research Methodology emphasis is to provide students with a variety of perspectives on research methods.

The emphasis includes two basic courses of study: (1) Educational Statistics and Measurement and (2) Qualitative and Interpretive Research. Students in Educational Statistics and Measurement will learn to apply statistical analyses to educational data, including large-scale student achievement surveys, and will learn to apply psychometric theory to the development of educational and psychological measurement instruments and to the analysis of test data. Students in Qualitative and Interpretive Research will learn about such research approaches as interviewing techniques, ethnographic methods, discourse analysis, narrative analysis, and participant observation. Students who specialize in Qualitative and Interpretive Research must also be accepted into another emphasis offered in the program.

Special Education, Disabilities and Risk Studies Emphasis (SpEDR)

This emphasis is concerned with educating researchers and practitioners who will be knowledgeable, and further expand our knowledge, regarding the educational needs of students with disabilities or who are at educational risk. The program philosophy is that researchers and practitioners need a contextualized view of students, within their school, home, and community, to understand their individual needs as well as the needs of the systems which are serving them. In this emphasis, students will obtain a multi-disciplinary perspective on children with special needs and their schools, families, and communities, through the combined efforts and knowledge of professionals from a variety of disciplinary backgrounds. Graduate students will be grounded in theories of typical and atypical development.

Teaching and Learning Emphasis (T&L)

This emphasis seeks to provide students with the knowledge and competencies needed to contribute to education in multiple ways. These roles include teaching, conducting research, and using teaching and learning theories and empirical findings to improve educational practices. Students in this emphasis learn to design and evaluate curricula, develop and research models of teacher education, research teaching methods, evaluate theories of human activity in teaching and learning settings, and attempt to understand educational reform issues from multiple perspectives. Students can further specialize in one of four areas: Language, Literacy, and Composition Studies; Mathematics Education; Science Education; and Teaching and Teacher Education. Through research, teaching, and community service, members of the Teaching and Learning Emphasis strive to improve educational opportunities at the local, state, and national levels.
