"Integrating teaching excellence, scholarly research, and service to society, the School of Education, Counseling Psychology, and Pastoral Ministries educates practitioners in education, counseling, health and human services, and pastoral ministry-whose professional competence, social conscience, and human compassion will transform lives, schools, and communities for the greater health, well being, and the common good of all, especially for those in greatest need. Toward that end, the school currently offers programs in four areas: Education, Counseling Psychology, Pastoral Ministries, and the Center for Professional Development."
