Master of Science in Educational Psychology - Applied Behavior Analysis

The applied behavior analysis (ABA) programs at Mississippi State University (MSU) are designed to provide education, training, and experience to students with the goal of preparing them for practice in real-world settings. Our faculty members are equipped with extensive clinical experiences in the field of behavior analysis and have exceptional teaching, supervision, and research skills. Faculty in the ABA programs share the goal of preparing students to become behavior analysts who provide high quality, evidence-based services to a wide range of ages, populations, and functioning levels in order to make socially significant changes in the lives of others. Currently, our coursework is available both face-to-face and online.

Students must have a bachelor's degree or be in the final semester of earning their bachelor's degree when they apply for admission. We require a statement of purpose, a resume or curriculum vitae, as well as contact information for three (3) references who will be prompted to submit letters of recommendation. We also require that official transcripts be sent to Mississippi State University. Our program operates on a cohort model and we accept students into the program only in the Fall semester.
