OSU Counselor Education
Undergraduate Courses
The Counselor Education Program offers
several undergraduate courses, in addition to the FEEP Program.
EDU PAES 270.01 – CAREER
COUNSELING
This course is designed to introduce students to the world of potential careers
and majors available at Ohio State. Students learn their own interests, values,
and skills, and how these match to potential careers. Career interest
inventories and personality preferences tests help with self-awareness. Guest
speakers from around campus discuss possible majors, and students engage in
activities to take them around campus to learn the possibilities.
The course is taught by a graduate student in
counselor education who has been trained in career counseling. During some
quarters, graduate students in counselor education are available for
one-on-one career counseling appointments, in conjunction with this course.
EDU PAES 270.02 – CAREER COUNSELING
This course is designed to assist students in later stages of their academic
careers. Typically, 270.02 is taken by students who either did not get into
their preferred major or by students who find themselves “done” with their
general education, with still no major to declare.
The course is taught by Dr. Ana C.
Berrios-Allison, LPC, Associate Director of Career Connections, and Adjunct
Assistant Professor in Counselor Education. Ana’s years of experience as a
career counselor, and her history of teaching 270.02, make her an excellent
professional resource for students
EDU PAES 270.03 - STUDY SKILLS
This is a study skills course that offers more than just study skills!
Taught by a graduate student in
Counselor Education, EDU PAES 270.03 covers the traditional study skills
curriculum, but does it in a small classroom, by a student trained in
counseling. Although the course is not intended to replace formal counseling,
it offers an instructor who takes time to learn each student’s name and
develop a personal connection, to talk with students about their transition to
college, to call or contact students when they miss classes, to give
encouragement when they feel ready to quit, and to help them make a personal
link to college and to Ohio State. The instructor also will help students
access university resources (e.g., counseling services, writing center,
multicultural student center) that will enhance their success.
