Overview
The Department of Counseling, Clinical, and School Psychology offers three courses of study:
1) a Counseling/Clinical Psychology Ph.D.
2) a School Psychology Ph.D.
3) a School Psychology M.Ed.
The doctoral program adheres to a scientist-practitioner training model and provides students with both research and practitioner knowledge and skills. The program’s primary goal is to train students who are interested in academic and research positions; a secondary goal is to prepare psychological service providers who will exercise influence on professional psychology through teaching, research, and leadership. The organizing themes that integrate the identity of the Department are the values of human diversity and individual differences, health and development across the lifespan, and ecological (e.g., family, school, community) influences on human behavior.
Interviews are scheduled for the most highly qualified applicants who meet admission criteria and have interests well suited to faculty interests.
The Department of Counseling, Clinical, and School Psychology also offers a Minor in Applied Psychology.
