Welcome to the Department of Counselor Education & Rehabilitation Programs Website!

You are encouraged to explore the academic programs in our department. Our students are very successful in obtaining meaningful employment upon graduation.

The Department of Counselor Education and Rehabilitation Programs is one of six departments in the Teachers College at Emporia State University. At the undergraduate level, the department offers the Bachelor of Science in Rehabilitation Services degree for those students who are interested in the human services profession.

The department also offers graduate work leading to the Master of Science degree for students desiring to become Rehabilitation Counselors and School Counselors. The overall goal of the department is to prepare counselors or helping professionals for a variety of public and private institutions and agencies. The primary objective of the department is to graduate students with widely based professional skills in the helping relationships. Graduates are prepared to work with persons in varied employment settings who have personal, social, career, educational and leisure concerns. The overriding purpose is for graduates to develop a high level of professional competence so that they may be of help to others.

Both graduate programs in the department are nationally accredited. The School Counseling Program is accredited by the Council for Accreditation of Counseling and Related Educational Programs (CACREP) and the Rehabilitation Counseling Program is accredited by the Council on Rehabilitation Education (CORE).

The department shares Emporia State University's vision to provide leadership in quality instruction, related scholarship and service in a student-centered environment. We strive to encourage academic excellence through all of our programs in the department.

The department, which officially moved to The Earl Center, 1601 State Street, occupies the entire upper level of the complex. On this level are the department office, offices for all full-time faculty, a conference room, the School Counselor Center, Community Counseling Services, a Rehabilitation Resource Center, a Career Development Center with several computers available for student projects, two large classrooms, video-taping rooms (practicum interview rooms), graduate assistant offices, a play therapy room, a family/group counseling room, a student organization office, a student lounge, and space for other supporting resources for students.
