The Master of Science in Addiction Studies program recently received funding (CreaTechnology Grant- WCSU) to implement a cutting edge counseling simulation program into the curriculum.  Professor Mary Murphy will be using the grant to expand the counseling simulation program started last year which will now include the addition of virtual reality. To stay on the forefront of the mental health counseling field, this program will give students a leading edge in learning how to deliver effective evidence-based counseling skills.  Stay tuned for updates on the results of this work in Summer 2025.
