Our clinical psychology program holds accreditation from The American Psychological Association and equips you for professional roles in academia, research, and clinical work. Grounded in the scientist-practitioner approach, our training philosophy emphasizes the seamless integration of research and hands-on practice throughout your career growth.
Beyond the core curriculum (view a sample study plan here), clinical studies involve both theoretical coursework and practical training centered on psychopathology, diagnostic evaluation, and treatment methodologies.
Your clinical journey begins with a foundational pre-practicum course in the first year. This experiential learning continues through diverse practicum placements and externships during your graduate studies (additional details available on our clinical training site). Our clinical faculty, who remain actively engaged in patient care alongside teaching and research, provide primary supervision throughout your training.
