In addition to holding a bachelor's degree in fields such as psychology, social work, counseling, or a closely related discipline, applicants may need to demonstrate proficiency in specific coursework relevant to addiction studies. This coursework might cover topics such as substance abuse assessment and intervention strategies, pharmacology of psychoactive substances, counseling techniques for individuals with addiction disorders, and ethical considerations in addiction counseling. Programs often seek candidates who have a solid foundation in these areas to ensure they are well-prepared to address the complex needs of individuals struggling with alcohol and drug addiction.
