Overview

Key Features

The Educational Psychology program from University of Missouri–St. Louis is an exciting and rewarding effort. Educational psychology is a branch of psychology that incorporates a number of sub-disciplines, including developmental psychology, behavioral psychology, cognitive psychology, neuro-education, and psychological measurement and assessment.

As such, students can focus on some different areas, such as how different types of technology affect students’ learning or how to incorporate psychological principles in designing and creating curriculums or learning materials that maximize learning for individuals or students with special needs, including the needs of gifted students.

Educational psychology also can focus on the study of the similarities and differences among individuals that guides educators to know how to promote learning and enhance motivation and informs them about which instructional and assessment strategies support students' learning and development. Studying with experts in the field will give you in-depth knowledge in these areas and provide you with the needed expertise to change the way we work with youth and adults.
