Our clinical psychology program holds accreditation from The American Psychological Association and equips you for professional roles in education, scientific investigation, and patient care. Grounded in the scientist-practitioner approach, our training methodology fosters the blending of academic inquiry with hands-on application during career growth. Initial clinical exposure occurs via a foundational pre-practicum course in your first year. Subsequent practical experience continues through diverse practicum placements and externships during your graduate studies (additional details available on our clinical training website). Guidance comes principally from our clinical faculty, who remain actively engaged in therapeutic work alongside their instructional and scholarly pursuits.
