The School Psychology Program at Oklahoma State University actively encourages graduate students to join research teams. The School Psychology Program utilizes the Science-Based Child/Learner Success Model in preparing graduate students to become highly competent, empirically based psychologists. Typically, research teams consist of a faculty member and several students who are in varying stages of their academic degree program. Students who have been in the program for several years may mentor new students in the research process creating an educational environment of support and efficiency. The School Psychology faculty hold weekly research team meetings with students with the end result being one of continuous productivity for the students.
