The master's in applied behavioral science teaches students to study and tackle issues that matter to society at every life stage through prevention and intervention.
The coursework fulfills the academic side of becoming a certified behavior analyst and, in most states, a licensed one. Fall applicants follow a published deadline, while spring admission has no filing deadline.
Candidates should consult the catalog entry for the course structure, thesis or non-thesis options, and the steps of the application. The sponsoring department and the KU graduate office can answer questions about funding, advising, and student support. Applicants who studied abroad may need their credentials evaluated for equivalence with American degrees, and requirements may change from one catalog year to the next, so current departmental guidance is worth confirming before applying. The catalog entry is the official source for the most current wording.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: Official transcripts proving a completed bachelor's degree from an accredited institution, plus proof of English proficiency for applicants who are not native or native-like speakers of English.
