Program details
Overview
The Master of Education in Educational Psychology at the University of Regina prepares graduates for work in educational psychology and counselling, with an emphasis on inclusive education and socially just practice. Three routes lead to the degree: a thesis-based stream oriented toward research and further doctoral study, a practicum-based stream offering supervised field experience in either a psychology-in-education or counselling focus, and a course-based stream built entirely around coursework without a thesis or practicum. Course delivery is flexible, combining blended and fully online options so that students already working in schools can study part-time. The curriculum addresses assessment, counselling theory, and applied psychology within educational settings, drawing on the university's focus on decolonizing counselling practice. The program suits educators, school-based practitioners, and those aiming toward registration as an educational psychologist or counsellor in Saskatchewan, as well as students planning to continue to doctoral studies through the thesis route. Applicants typically hold an undergraduate degree in education or a related field. Graduates go on to work as counsellors, consultants, and psychologists within school divisions and community or private practice settings.
Requirements
Minimum GPA:70.00 / %
Admission Requirements: Admission to the Master of Education in Educational Psychology requires a four-year degree applicable to the program — normally a Bachelor of Education, Bachelor of Arts in Education, or equivalent — with a minimum grade point average of 70 per cent. Experience conducting psychological assessments or counselling others is treated as an asset rather than a requirement. The program page does not publish its own language-proficiency scores; per the University of Regina's graduate eligibility requirements, international applicants must submit proof of English proficiency through a recognized test unless they completed post-secondary study at a Canadian institution, with accepted tests and the university's Faculty of Graduate Studies application guide covering the exact thresholds. Meeting the minimum requirements does not guarantee admission: the page states this explicitly, noting that admission is subject to availability of space in the program.
Application Details
Application Deadline:Domestic applicants to the University of Regina apply for Fall 2027 entry with a recommended early deadline of 15 March 2027 for best course selection and a final new-applicant deadline of 15 August 2027; Winter 2027-28 entry has an early deadline of 1 November 2026 and a final deadline of 15 December 2026, and Spring/Summer 2027 entry closes 15 April 2027. International (study-permit) applicants share the same final deadlines as domestic students for each term but have no separate early deadline. Numerous named programs, including Nursing, Social Work, Bachelor of Indigenous Social Work, Indigenous Fine Arts and Indigenous Education, carry their own earlier deadlines instead of the general dates. Admission is not described as rolling; late non-competitive applications are simply carried to the next term the program accepts. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
