Counselor Education

The Counselor Education Department at San Jose State University offers a Master of Arts degree in Education with a concentration in Counseling and Student Personnel with or without an additional Pupil Personnel Services (PPS) School Counseling Credential (required to work as K-12 School Counselors in California). Our faculty work closely with students to build effective counseling and assessment skills, nurture reflective thinking and inter-cultural awareness, and provide the experiences students need to become dynamic leaders committed to advocacy, social justice, and life-long learning.
