Distance Learning Program
For 30 years, Saybrook Graduate School's mode of education has been distance learning. Because of the unique mix of mentorship, on-site residential programs, and on-line classes, the Saybrook model encourages close contact between faculty members and students, and among students. Programs are structured to meet the personal and professional needs of adult learners and persons not able or willing to travel to traditional classrooms.
Delivery Media
Learning takes place through one-on-one mentorships with faculty members, in small cohort groups, courses online, and at seminars at residential conferences. Using learning guides, students complete course work which is evaluated by faculty members who communicate by phone, letter, fax, computer, or in person at conferences.
Programs of Study
Saybrook Graduate School offers programs in psychology, human science, and organizational systems. Students may pursue an M.A. or a Ph.D. in any program. Within each program, students select a concentration of study: humanistic and transpersonal clinical inquiry and health studies; consciousness and spirituality; social
transformation; or organizational systems. Saybrook’s psychology degree program prepares its graduates to be scholars and researchers in the broad domain of human experience. Saybrook is an institute providing alternative education that conscientiously challenges many of the axioms of mainstream medicalized and industrialized psychology, and offers an emancipatory alternative. While the primary focus of Saybrook's psychology program is not clinical, Saybrook offers the course work necessary to take the licensing exam in most states. The human science program provides an opportunity for a humanistic, action-learning approach to group, family, public and private organizations, and community and global spheres of life. The Saybrook approach combines responsible action with scholarly reflection, exploring transformative change that respects human dignity and creative possibilities. The human science program consists of a set of perspectives pertaining to the human condition in historical, contextual, cross-cultural, political, and religious terms. It employs perspectives such as feminism, post-structuralism, critical theory, existential phenomenology, and postmodernism. The human sciences are a collective understanding of the common condition, and contribute to the ongoing story of social improvement and consciousness evolution. The organizational systems program is designed to develop leaders, scholars, and practitioners who are capable of addressing the challenge of building organizations and communities with greater capacity to deal with the increasing turbulence, interconnection, and diverse frame-works of interpretation of the information age/knowledge era. The mission of the organizational systems program is to educate leaders to become adept at changing and designing organizations that reflect the highest human ideals. |
