This document outlines the course requirements for a counseling degree at Bridgewater State University. It lists the core counseling courses, mental health counseling courses, fieldwork requirements, and capstone experience options. It also notes that completing all the required coursework at a rate of two classes per semester would take around 4 years, plus additional time is needed to complete the required fieldwork hours of 450 hours in a mental health setting and 450 hours in a school setting. The document expresses uncertainty about correctly calculating the timeline and lack of ideas for fieldwork site locations yet hopes to remain local to the Taunton area.

Transition Plans
Found on the Academic Catalog webpage on Bridgewater State Universities site these are the classes I still need to take. General counseling core courses (24 credits)
CNGC 500 - Research and Evaluation
CNGC 528 - Counseling Theories and Techniques CNGC 529 - Multicultural Counseling (spring semester) CNGC 532 - Psychological Assessment CNGC 538 - Group I: Theory and Process of Group Interaction and CNGC 520 - Group Experience (non-credit; graded on a (P) Pass/(N) No Pass basis) CNGC 539 - Introduction to Career Counseling (spring semester) CNGC 563 - Psychopharmacology for Nonmedical Professionals CNGC 582 - Preventive Counseling

3 Electives- Which maybe this class (CNSC 515) falls under an elective?
Fieldwork requirements (21 credits)
Students must attend a clinical seminar each semester they are involved in field experience and must attend a minimum of two total seminars. CNMH 570 - Advanced Applied Counseling: Mental Health Counselor (100 hours, 3 credits) CNMH 571 - Internship: Mental Health Counselor (total of 450 hours, 9 credits) CNMH 582 - Internship: Mental Health Counselor - Dual License (total of 450 hours, 9 credits)
Capstone Experience Students will complete the culminating experience with the successful completion of one of the following options: CNGC 585 - Capstone in Counseling – Portfolio CNGC 586 - Capstone in Counseling – Project Paper Counselor Preparation Comprehensive Examination (CPCE) Taking two classes at a time it looks like it will take me 4 years to complete the classwork, although maybe I can expedite that by taking summer classes. Then I will need to field work, 450 hrs at a mental health facility and 450 hours in a school setting. So it looks like I might be taking the CPCE in 2029, that sounds pretty far off though, I’m not sure I’m figuring this out correctly. I haven’t any ideas for potential places of advanced applied and practicum sites, but I do hope to stay local to the Taunton area.
