Three Ed Psych programs place high on U.S. News & World Report’s best graduate schools list

Once again, several Department of Educational Psychology programs placed high on the U.S. News & World Report’s Best Graduate Schools annual rankings. The department ranked #10 for educational psychology and special education on the 2023 list. Counselor education also placed high, coming in at 12th this year. Specialty program rankings are based on nominations by education school deans and deans of graduate studies at education schools.

The College of Education and Human Development (CEHD) as a whole was rated the 12th best public education graduate school in the nation. In U.S. News & World Report’s entire list of 277 schools, CEHD placed 19th overall.
