A Decade of Innovation
Under the leadership of its seventh president, The Chicago School grew from a small institution with a single doctoral program to the world’s leading graduate school devoted exclusively to psychology and the related behavioral sciences. While our physical location changed and expanded, so too did our vision for the future. We articulated a new approach to psychology education, known as the Engaged Professional Model, and let inspiration pave the way as we designed programs focused on the application of psychology to disparate fields. These efforts were so successful—as was the culture of innovation that transpired—that we now bid farewell to Dr. Michael Horowitz as Chicago School president as he takes the helm of TCS Education System.
