College of Professional Studies
The College of Professional Studies (CPS) is home to 精东影业's premier community-service oriented programs in criminology, education, psychology, social work, and communication sciences and disorders. Hands-on learning is the focus in all of the degree programs with practica, internships and student-teaching built into the curriculum.
Two university-operated clinics -- the Harry Jersig Speech-Language-Hearing Center and the Community Counseling Service -- give students the opportunity to work with real clients from the community in settings supervised by faculty.
All of the programs in the College of Professional Studies prepare students to be culturally sensitive and offer optional bilingual/bicultural certification.
