Provide a research statement that includes areas of specific research interest, current publication and/or scholarship activities, and future directions into your research agenda • Your research area(s) must align with the counseling field. • Provide us with an outline of your research agenda. >Leadership and Advocacy • Describe your statement of leadership and advocacy • Outline your leadership and advocacy agenda including leadership roles in counseling organizations and/or the counseling profession • Describe your role as a leader and advocate in the counselor field inclusive of multicultural and social justice issues *Apply leadership as a future counselor educator/supervisor *All responses must be research based *Remember you are a CACREP Accredited counselor in the state of Texas, following ACA Code of Ethics and preparing to take on the identity of a counselor educator upon graduation. The areas we evaluate include: (a) content- that it is addressed fully, developed, and accurate to show a clear professional identity in our field; (b) organization- response to be organized and hold a logical flow; and (c) professionalism- indicative of doctoral level work which includes written professional with little to no errors in writing. A “good” (I say this term loosely) way to think about writing these is: content with citation, example, professional experience. For example, discuss leadership style from a model/theory (cite that), give an example of what this looks like in practice, then lastly give your professional experience with that. If none, its ok to write it as “this is what I will do once I graduate.”
