cpsylist: Welcome to our 2022-2023 academic year + some info about EDUC sequences

[Leslie Leve]

Dear CPHS graduate students,

We hope that you enjoyed the glorious Oregon summer (or wherever you happened to spend your summer days and nights). As students and faculty begin to return to town, the activity and energy around campus and HEDCO are palpable, it’s wonderful to see many of you in the hallways and around campus this past week.

I am writing to share my understanding of what you should register for/expect in your EDUC courses this academic year, because it’s a bit confusing and has changed from prior years.

First, all incoming counseling psychology and prevention science doctoral students and all incoming prevention science MS students should enroll in the new EDUC series, which is called EDUC 610L Intro Data Analysis Ed in DuckWeb for fall term. Note that you will also register for a discussion section. There will be 2 additional courses as part of this series that you will take in winter and spring term. In addition, you should register for EDUC 612 Social Sci Res Design for fall.

Second, incoming prevention science MEd students will generally register for EDUC 612 this term (and, EDUC 614 winter term). However, if you are an incoming MEd student with strong statistical skills and aspirations, and/or goals of pursuing a PhD, you may also wish to register for EDUC 610L Intro Data Analysis Ed. This is optional and not required.

Third, incoming CFT students will generally register for EDUC 611 Surv Educ Res Methods for fall. There is an option to consider enrolling in EDUC 612 Social Sci Res Design instead, if you are planning a career more focused on. Please check with the CFT program director if you are unsure.

Fourth, second year prevention science students (PhD and MS) and second year counseling psychology students should complete your original EDUC sequence, and register for EDUC 642 (fall) and EDUC 644 (winter). The instructors (Dr. Zopluoglu for EDUC 642 and Dr. Harrison for EDUC 644) know that students may come with either R or SPSS experience, and both will be accommodated.

Finally, any student who will be taking the new EDUC sequence (beginning with EDUC 610L Intro Data Analysis Ed this fall) AND any student who has additional advanced stats courses to complete in your program plan (e.g., SEM or HLM), should take the FREE R Workshop (LINK<https://community.uoregon.edu/courses/18778>) created by College of Education professor Dr. Cengiz Zopluoglu. All incoming PhD and MS students should have received information about this yesterday, in an email from EDUC. If you did NOT receive this AND need to take the free R Workshop, please contact Amy Harter to be added to the list and Canvas site.

Whew! I sincerely hope that I got all this correct, and that all of you now have clarity in terms of what to register for related to EDUC 😊.  Please let me know directly if you see any errors or omissions in this guidance. Happy fall!

Leslie

The University of Oregon is located on Kalapuya Ilihi, the traditional indigenous homeland of the Kalapuya people. Today, descendants are citizens of the Confederated Tribes of the Grand Ronde Community of Oregon and the Confederated Tribes of the Siletz Indians of Oregon, and they continue to make important contributions in their communities, at UO, and across the land we now refer to as Oregon.
