History

Ferkauf grew out of Yeshiva University’s School of Education and Community Administration (1948–57) and Graduate School of Education (1957–65). It was named in 1965 in honor of Eugene and Estelle Ferkauf. It later became Ferkauf Graduate School of Humanities and Social Sciences (1966–77) and Ferkauf Graduate School (1977–82). In 1975, with the merger of the Departments of Psychology and Educational Psychology to form the University-wide Department of Psychology, Ferkauf began to develop as a school of psychology. In 1979, the School of Professional Psychology was established at Ferkauf Graduate School.
